Why is the paper version of the manuscript no longer required for the Library?
The University requires only electronic submission (though your committee and/or department may still want a paper version). By the University not accepting paper, it reduces the handling and library costs, saves you money, and increases access to your work. Paper copies are also limited in the format of information that can be included with your manuscript.
