Keeping Up-to-Date

Here are some convenient ways of keeping up-to-date with journal articles being published on your subject:-

LION (LiteratureOnline) enables you to set up automatic search alerts. Save your search on the database and when new records matching your search are added they will be emailed to you.

For key journals, go to the publisher's web site and see whether there is an option set up a table-of-contents alert. If so, each time a new issue is published the table of contents will be emailed to you.
