Urkund (Ouriginal)
All reports are submitted via Urkund (Ouriginal), a tool that searches for similar or identical texts on the Internet and in databases. When a report is sent through the system, it is stored in a database to be searchable when the thesis is analysed. Copyright proprietors have the right to exempt their work from being used as a comparative object, except for work from the University of Borås.

Publication on the Internet through DiVA
When a report is published in DiVA, it receives a unique link and within a few days becomes automatically searchable in Google, the national essay database Uppsök and in Uppsatser.se. The consent of all of the authors is required to publish a report and everyone must therefore tick the box for their approval in connection with the submission. Paper copies of a report can of course be ordered from a printing office. The easiest is to print out a copy from DiVA and then submit it to a printing office or to the Studentcenter.
