Popis: This paper discusses the results of the 2021 International Electronic Theses and Dissertation (ETD) Survey. The survey found that the percentage of responses from outside the U.S. increased significantly since the first survey in 2013, rising from 18% of total responses to 41%, providing us with a higher degree of accuracy in assessing trends in ETD practices and also indicates a growing awareness of and interest in ETDs worldwide. Although ETD initiatives are widespread, there are still factors that influence a move from print to fully digital that include providing open access through an IR and increasing the visibility of institutional and student research. Accomplishing these goals requires that support and systems be in place, which can require funding, policy changes, tools, and technology updates.
