  • After FTPing the files, be sure to delete them from the FTP server.

  • Use Filezilla to FTP the new thesis and dissertations from Proquest. Open Filezilla. Enter the Proquest FTP IP, the username, and port. Push Enter. The last line of the top box on the screen should say "Directory Listing Successful" and the lower left-hand portion of the screen should be populated with files on the Proquest server. The left side of the screen shows your computer--find the ETD folder on your hard drive. Use the date to identify the new files that we need to obtain. Highlight all of the files we need by holding down the shift key while clicking the first and last files you want highlighted. Drag them to your ETD folder. The progress of file transfer will show on the bottom of the screen. Wait while all files transfer (you can minimize and do something else).

Once you are on the correct folder, all of your zip files should display in the window. Highlight all of the zip files by holding the the shift key by clicking the first and last files you want highlighted. Click extract. The destination for the extract opens to C:\ETD\ZIP*\. Delete the *\ so that the files all go into the ZIP folder. Click ok.
