If you are associated with a university and your department or school produces dissertations and theses in kinesiology and its allied areas we invite you to submit your students' work.

Acquire a Permission to Publish form from Kinesiology Publications or download and print the pdf file:

Permission to Publish
You will need Adobe Acrobat® Reader. If you do not have the software you may download it for free from the Adobe website.

Guidelines for Submitting Abstracts

As a part of graduation procedures, graduates must:
- fill in and sign Permission to Publish form
- provide one copy of both the abstract and the title page

Kinesiology Publications selects theses or dissertations from submitted abstracts for inclusion in the collection. After review, the advisor or faculty member will be contacted for assistance in obtaining the studies selected for inclusion. Individual students may also submit their completed theses or dissertations. Submission may be in hardcopy or electronic form, preferably a pdf.

Guidelines for Submitting Books

Send a clear, clean representation, either the original or a single-sided reproduction of the book.

The study may be bound or unbound as the machinery will not affect the bindings. Pack the book(s) in a padded bag or small box for protection. Individual students may send their studies either by post office BOOK RATE, or by United Parcel Service (UPS). Schools, colleges, and universities may check on the possibility of sending books through Post Office LIBRARY RATE. The book(s) will be returned in approximately 8-10 weeks.

Guidelines for Electronic Thesis and Dissertation (ETD) Submissions

Your electronic thesis or dissertation must be in Portable Document Format (pdf). Adobe Systems developed the PDF standard and Adobe Acrobat® is the premiere software for creating and manipulating PDF files (.pdf). To submit your PDF formatted theses or dissertation contact Michael Powell at kinpubs@uoregon.edu.
