When the LTS thesis liaison is contacted by a patron or notified by Reference Dept. staff that a patron wishes to see a thesis before it has been processed, ask for patron's contact information (name, phone/e-mail) so that you can provide information on the availability of the thesis. Check the latest list of Advanced Degrees Conferred for the author. If the author does not appear on the list, the degree has not yet been conferred, though the thesis may have been submitted to a college department. If the author appears on the list, and we have theses awaiting processing, RUSH process if it is bound. If the thesis cannot be processed, or still unbound at the Bindery, inform the patron and/or Reference staff of the situation and the process of viewing an unbound thesis.  If both un-bound copies are available, select the circulating copy for viewing.  Carry the unprocessed thesis to the security desk of the Rare Books and Manuscripts Division in 2B Krock Library, where the patron can view it in the secure reading room.  When the patron no longer needs the thesis, RMC staff will notify LTS liasion to retrieve the thesis for processing.
