Research Guides: Alerting services: index

Many databases provide email and RSS alerting services (also called current awareness services) to highlight new content as it is added to the database. These kinds of alerts can be more useful than publisher-based alerts when your research topic is covered across multiple journals or is multi-disciplinary.
