Many databases offer email alerts for newly published journal articles, book chapters, and conference papers.
Two main types of journal alerts are:
You usually need to create an account for the database or website where you access the journal to create the alert. Most library databases provide alert services. Check database help pages for more information.
Most publishers and book sellers provide notification and recommendation services for their products and you can sign up for alerts.
The library also provides alerts for new books that have been added to the collection, which is available by RSS feed.
These sites provide information about upcoming conferences and events.
Also check relevant professional association websites for upcoming events, as these organisations often run conferences and workshops.
You can find a specific article by searching for its title in MultiSearch.
For example: Rampai, T., Lang, C.I. & Sigalas, I. 2013, "Investigation of MAX phase/c-BN composites", Ceramics International, vol. 39, no. 5, pp. 4739-4748.
If you can't find an article by searching for its title, try searching for the journal name instead.
In this case search for "ceramics international". Click Online access then click on the link provided to browse through a list of issues to find your article.
If the journal is in our print collection you will need to request it from the Automated Retrieval Collection.
