[lace] Masters Thesis on American Lacemaking
Thank you for all the interest in my thesis. I received a Masters of Liberal Arts from Winthrop University in Rock Hill, SC this May. I know that my thesis will will available at Dacus Library at Winthrop, and maybe also through interlibrary loan. I have sent one to the IOLI library as well. I only had copies printed for contributors and for the school. I am leaving next week for a month in France. When I return in early August, I will have additional copies printed. If you email me off list I will let you know how much it will cost for me to mail you a copy. (I imagine it would be somewhere around $15 for printing and postage).

Re: RE: [lace] Masters Thesis on American Lacemaking
That depends very much on the policy of the institution and on the degree. There are many different master's degrees and they do not all require submission to University Microfilms or other institutions (although UMI does accept master's theses, it doesn't follow that all master's theses are sent to UMI, in other words). I did some googling. Michelle Chase received her MLA degree (could be Master of Language Arts or Master of Liberal Arts) from Winthrop University. She lives in Fort Lawn and belongs to the Golden Bobbins guild and IOLI. Her thesis is not listed in their on-line library catalog (http://www.winthrop.edu). You could try e-mailing the university to ask about their policy re: MLA theses or e-mail Michelle herself at zzmclwc @ hotmail.com. I don't know how often she checks that address, since it's her Webmaster address for the Golden Bobbins site. Avital I have been quizzing my husband, who formerly was Associate University Librarian at Boston College. I assume that this thesis was at an American institution, not abroad. He says that Masterapos;s theses were indeed covered and he assumes still are. We arenapos;t clear if there has been any advancement with computer recording/searching. If youapos;d like to let me know what in college/university this thesis was presented, and/or how long ago, I will try to find out more. Or, there are probably not a few librarians on this mailing list who could do as well.

Re: [lace] Masters Thesis on American Lacemaking
Devon, Michelle has done a great job of pulling it all together, especially when one considers how little *truly American* lace there has been made in the short time US has been US. I think this would be interesting for all list-members especialy those who are interested in lace-history. Could this be send on the list perhaps?

Re: [lace] Masters Thesis on American Lacemaking
Dear Lacemakers In times past University Microfilms in Ann Arbor Michigan sold xerox copies of theses at a reasonable price. It was an excellent system. Does this still apply? And if so are masters theses covered?
