The main intention of this study was to identify factors influencing Members participation in Agricultural Cooperatives in selected Multipurpose Agricultural Cooperatives in Dandi Woreda, Oromia Regional State, Ethiopia. For this study four Agricultural cooperatives were selected from the 17 similar cooperatives based on longevity of life span, mainly those formed beyond 8 years. Primary data were collected from 122 sample respondents selected by using simple random sampling. Secondary data were also used. Binary logistic regression and paired t-tests were used to analyze categorical and numerical data respectively. The logistic regression result shows that age, awareness level, access to credit, attitude and promoters support, training and education found statistically significant factors affecting members participation in cooperatives. The authors recommends that member education training and awareness have to be given in a continuous manner.

Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and disseminated by the Center for Information and Numerical Data Analysis and Synthesis (CINDAS) * at Purdue University in 1957, starting its coverage of theses with the academic year 1955. Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dissemination phases of the activity were transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the thought that such an arrangement would be more beneficial to the academic and general scientific and technical community. After five years of this joint undertaking we had concluded that it was in the interest of all con cerned if the printing and distribution of the volumes were handled by an interna tional publishing house to assure improved service and broader dissemination. Hence, starting with Volume 18, Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences has been disseminated on a worldwide basis by Plenum Publishing Cor poration of New York, and in the same year the coverage was broadened to include Canadian universities. All back issues can also be ordered from Plenum. We have reported in Volume 34 (thesis year 1989) a total of 13,377 theses titles from 26 Canadian and 184 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base for these titles reported will greatly enhance the value of this important annual reference work. While Volume 34 reports theses submitted in 1989, on occasion, certain univer sities do report theses submitted in previous years but not reported at the time.
