I�m sorry to hear that you have experienced issues with CORA this morning. It may be related to the browser you are using as we have noticed problems with Internet Explorer. I see on CORA that you have started your submission and all of the details you have listed in your email are on the form. I can do the submission on your behalf but I need to clarify which of the following you wish to happen 1. Submit an abstract to CORA and decision to withhold form (http://booleweb.ucc.ie/documents/Decision_to_Withold.pdf) to the Graduate Studies Office with your hard bound thesis. E-thesis is not archived on CORA. 2. Submit an abstract and e-thesis to CORA. E-thesis is archived on CORA but online access is restricted to everyone for 3 years as per your embargo request in CORA. E-thesis files can be provided to us in the Library by memory stick, upload of files to dropbox or by ftp transfer. A Decision to Withhold form is not required by the Graduate Studies Office when you submit your thesis. If you can let me know which option you�d like to go with, I can make the submission in CORA if you are happy with that. Apologies again for the difficulties you have experienced with CORA.
