Publish your thesis in DiVA

Compilation theses

For monographs, the full text can be published, but for a compilation thesis only the summarising chapter can be published according to copyright rules. Appended articles are registered and linked to the thesis. You may be allowed to upload author versions of your articles also, this is called parallel publishing.

PDF-format

Before starting the registering process, your text must be available in PDF format. Note that the document must consist of one file only.
