From: ndsu disq.processor Sent: Friday, August 2, 2019 9:07 AM To: Hughes ll, Rex Subject: FW: Your dissertation online Hi Rex, Just to let you know, there is a student who elected to delay his dissertation video when it was filmed, then later decided not to submit a Request for Delayed Release on his dissertation. Based on the e-mail below, if you are currently delaying Mohammed Alshareef’s video that embargo can be lifted. Regards, Dan Dan Nygard Disquisition Processor NORTH DAKOTA STATE UNIVERSITY 106 Putnam Hall NDSU Dept. 2820 P.O. Box 6050 Fargo, ND 58108-6050 701-231-5272 From: Alshareef, Mohammed Sent: Friday, August 2, 2019 7:27 AM To: ndsu disq.processor Subject: Your dissertation online Dear Dan, I hope this email finds you well. When I recorded my video I requested delay for my dissertation but I didn’t sign the other form for the delay. I’m fine to be available now. When do you think it will be available online? Sincerely you Mohammed From: Alshareef, Mohammed Sent: Friday, August 2, 2019 3:24:42 PM To: Juve, Nicole Subject: Re: Your dissertation online Hi Nicole, Thanks a lot for your explanation. I’ll contact Dan. Sincerely you Mohammed From: Juve, Nicole Sent: Friday, August 2, 2019 1:47:46 AM To: Alshareef, Mohammed Subject: Your dissertation online Hi Mohammed Alshareef, You recently contacted the NDSU Libraries reference chat about why your dissertation is not currently available online. I check with one of the librarians that works with these and here’s what I learned: * It looks like you requested a delayed release for your dissertation. That is why the video and dissertation are not available yet. o If you did not request a delay, and/or you would like change this and make the video and dissertation available now, you will need to contact Dan Nygard at ndsu.disq.processor@ndsu.edu This explains why it isn’t in the NDSU repository yet (we can’t post it if there’s a delay on it), but I’m not sure why it’s not in ProQuest. That may also be because of the delay that was requested. Dan should be able to answer this for you. Good luck!
