| Title: | The Changing Face of Graduate Scholarship in the Digital Frontier |

| Abstract: | The WVU team is here to expose the advantages of implementing mandatory ETD programs; I prefer to reason in terms of inevitability; whether we want it or not, the text is no longer paper, the book is no longer solid, empirical, expensive, therefore credible stuff. Those in literature can appreciate this mutation from a privileged point of view: we were raised in the veneration of the book, the object; something holy, sacred about a dusty 19 century leather bound edition of let's say Edgar Allan Poe. We need to rethink the modalities of scholarship, to rethink a whole process of communication; it has become imperative to rethink our thinking. |
