There are several platforms where you can set up alerts to receive the latest articles published on a topic or in certain journals.
Two are described below:
- Read by QxMD, available as a smartphone app.
- EBSCO Alerts available through the eLibrary, or EBSCO databases such as MEDLINE, CINAHL, or PsycINFO.
The choice of alerting methods can depend on the purpose or topic. If there is a very specific topic of interest, using a detailed database search might be best. Platforms for this include EBSCO, Ovid, and Pubmed.
For broader coverage Read by QxMD, which is available as an app, may be appropriate.
