Why use an Alert Service?

An alert service will provide you with a list of the articles newly added to a database on a subject that the researcher has requested. This will save time running the same search on a regular basis in a particular database when you want to keep current on a particular research topic.

Many alert services will send the table of contents of the latest issue of journals that you regularly review. Again, this saves time checking for the table of contents manually.
