Search Alerts

Find out how to get automatic updates for new materials in databases based on your searches.

Search Alerts 

A Search Alert is a way for you to save a search and get email notification of any new records that have been found in the database that match your search criteria as new records are added. It's a great way to stay current without repeating previous work!

 

How Can I Create Search Alerts?

Since each database platform has its own way of setting up search alerts, you will need to follow the instructions for the database platform. The majority of our databases use the EBSCO or ProQuest platforms. 

  •    When you are using a database, look for the branding in the upper portion of your screen
  •     Follow instructions for creating alerts in EBSCOhost or ProQuest databases.
