LogoIST How to deposit ?

In accordance with the Decree of 25 May 2016, the legal deposit of electronic theses is mandatory (even in case of confidentiality).
ADUM interface is the central tool for such a deposit. It allows doctoral students to make two electronic deposits of their thesis - one before thesis defense (during the interview with librarian), the other after thesis defense -, as well as to download the forms necessary for thesis deposit and dissemination.

The deposit implementation is jointly coordinated by the library and the doctoral schools.
