Dissertation Databases

  • AHA Directory of History Dissertations  
      
    The American Historical Association maintains a directory of almost 24,000 doctoral dissertations completed or in progress at 197 U.S. and Canadian universities. Search by author, advisor, institution, or title keyword(s) for dissertations dating to 1882.
  • ProQuest Dissertations & Theses @ All Universities  
      
    Previously known as Digital Dissertations, this database is the definitive guide to more than 2 million master's theses and doctoral dissertations.
  • ProQuest Dissertations & Theses @ Temple  
      
    This subset of the larger ProQuest database includes only theses and dissertations written by Temple University graduate students. Temple dissertations from the 1950s to date are available full-text.
 
 

Find History Theses & Dissertations: The Diamond Catalog

A chronological list of the nearly 300 Temple history theses and dissertations cataloged in Diamond since 1979 (newest to oldest) can be viewed here. To search within this list, perform a keyword search in Diamond as follows (simply copy/paste into Diamond):

s:"History -- Temple University Theses." AND [search term of choice]

Examples:

s:"History -- Temple University Theses." AND war*
s:"History -- Temple University Theses." AND wom?n

In a Diamond keyword search, "s:" instructs the database to return only records that match a particular subject heading, in this case "History -- Temple University Theses". This heading also retrieves dissertations created under the sponsorship of the Art History Department, i.e. Art -- History -- Temple University Theses.

Temple dissertations are shelved alphabetically by author and are located on the the 3rd floor of Paley Library (northeast quadrant). In the future, access to newly created Temple dissertations will be through the ProQuest database only (at left).
