Libra, the online archive of scholarship created by the university community.
Libra is the University of Virginia’s online institutional repository, which provides a central, stable location for the scholarly output of the university community. Libra provides a place for journal articles, datasets, and other completed scholarly works to be preserved and accessed online.
Electronic copies of dissertations and masters’ theses can be added to Libra and made available on a long-term basis as a replacement for paper copies added to the library’s shelves. Not only do ETDs save library shelf space, they provide wider access to students’ work, and save time and money for graduate students by providing an easier workflow for submission of the final thesis or dissertation copy.
