New Scholarly Publications Alerts
- To find new publications in your field, the best databases
to consult are ingenta and Current Contents.
In addition to standard searching of these databases, faculty
may choose to be alerted to new publications by notifications
from ingenta, a company supplying access to articles in more
than 26,000 journals. Go to the ingenta
home page, choose “sign up” and follow the instructions
for registering. Don’t forget to include your e-mail address.
You may then choose up to 25 keyword search phrases and 50 journal
titles. Each week ingenta will e-mail you the citations
for new articles matching your keyword searches and tables of
contents for new issues of your journals. You may search the
Current Contents database at the GALILEO site, but
an automatic alert service is not available. 8/22/05
