Want to keep up-to-date with the latest books and articles in the library world? If your answer is yes, take a look at this brand-new feature on the Library Hub.
The new search alert feature allows you to monitor new books and articles that become available via the Library Hub. Creating a search alert is the perfect way to see the latest from a particular author or subject that you are interested in. For example, if you wish to be updated about any books released in 2023 about “pastoral care”, you can create a search alert to notify you when they become available via the Library Hub. You will be automatically notified each week if any new results meet your saved search alert criteria.
How to set up a search alert
1. On the catalogue, search for a subject, author or keyword of your choosing and select the filters on the left that you wish to narrow your search alerts to i.e., year range 2023, eBooks only, library etc.
2. Once you are satisfied with your search criteria, click the create alert button near the top right of the search results.
3. If prompted, sign into your library account. If you haven’t signed in before, see how to set up a library account here.
4. Once signed in, a slide screen will appear which will allow you to rename your search alert if desired (default name will be original search query terms).
5. Enter your email address and click save to set up alerts.
