There are two main routes for purchasing a printed copy of your thesis or dissertation. First, WVU has an institutional partnership with Proquest. After your thesis or dissertation is published in the WVU Research Repository, Proquest will add a copy to the Proquest Theses and Dissertations database. When your thesis or dissertation appears in the Proquest database (usually several months after your original submission), you can purchase a physical copy of it.
The second option is to go through another third party vendor. WVU has no affiliation with any of the vendors in this list. All of these vendors can accept a PDF copy of your dissertation and provide you with a range of printing and binding options.
