Electronic Theses & Dissertations Section (ETD)
ETD section offers a Plagiarism/Similarity Check service using TURNITIN & DRILLBIT plagiarism detection software. It manages the downloading of theses, verification, and forwarding to the Evaluation Branch from the E-Thesis Tracking System. The theses submitted to the university are uploaded on the library OPAC (http://jnucatalogue.jnu.ac.in:8000/) and made accessible to the scholars. The submitted theses are also uploaded to the Shodhganga National Repository after the scholars have been awarded the degree (https://shodhganga.inflibnet.ac.in/handle/10603/60)
The ETD section also provides online and offline reference services to JNU scholars and those visiting from other universities. The awareness sessions/workshops are organized frequently by the Central Library to address the queries of the scholars and to equip them with the know-how of the software. The workshops intend to create awareness among scholars about the features accessible to them and their effective use. The exhibitions of theses & dissertations on different topics are also organized to showcase the research work of the scholars and for wider publicity among the scholars.
