ProQuest is undertaking a pilot project in 2017 that would include the following related to short form videos which summarize dissertation/thesis research:
1) Build an open access web portal to collect and display short form videos (including, but not limited to, 3MTs) from universities around the world
2) Transcribe the short form videos and provide videos + transcription to universities for local use
3) Facilitate discovery and access of short form videos via search engines
Short Form Video Pilot
![Page 25: ProQuest Dissertations and Theses Overview - …cgsnet.org/ckfinder/userfiles/files/2017 SW/McLean and Coles(1).pdfProQuest provides thesis citations ... \爀ⴀⴀⴀ䴀礀 唀渀椀瘀攀爀猀椀琀礀](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051321/5af260b27f8b9abc788fa6e3/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Similar to the rights that ProQuest obtains for master’s and PhD theses, ProQuest would seek:
1) Non-exclusive rights to include short form videos in ProQuest’s open access short form thesis video database
2) Author or university would retain copyright
3) Provide rights to universities to use ProQuest-created video transcripts for local use at no fee
