The license granted to La Trobe University is not an assignment of copyright.

The University will cease to provide open access to the full-text thesis online when requested by the publisher or candidate/author. In this case, the student needs to request the withdrawal of their thesis by contacting <a href="mailto:grs@latrobe.edu.au">Graduate Research Services (GRS)</a>.</p><p>Unless, under certain circumstances (i.e. confidentiality), a student does not want to make their thesis available for a period of time, the University retains the right to supply a thesis, whether published or unpublished, in whole or in part, to other researchers requesting the thesis for their own personal research or study, in accordance with Section 51 of the Copyright Act.</p><p>La Trobe University provides access to the digital copy of the thesis UNLESS the author requests the University to restrict access.
