SDIs (AutoAlerts)

 

Previous Next

SDIs (Selective Dissemination of Information) are programs that run a predetermined search and send you the results of that search. It is possible to use this function in the OVID databases (NOTE: link opens in new window).

This means that you can save searches in your area of interest, and when the database is updated you will be emailed the newest records that match that search.

You can also use this facility in the Current Contents database, which will ensure that the latest contents pages of selected journals are emailed to you.
