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 a 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.
