Retrospective theses and articles

Many items on SUNScholar have the full text attached, but unfortunately there are also many without the full text. If you can provide us with the full text of research articles (or full references to these) and theses from previous years, we would very much like to make these files available on SUNScholar after copyright has been cleared. Please send to: scholar@sun.ac.za
