The Dissertation Service accepts dissertations approved by the doctoral committee as part of the scientific defense and “Habilitationsschriften” (post-doctoral theses) on behalf of the University Library. It acknowledges the receipt, publishes the theses, and enters them into the appropriate bibliographic databases.
