It is possible to receive subject alerts from both single OVID databases and from cross-searching a combination of them. Although OVID offers RSS feeds from subject searches, in practice these do not work so you need to create a personal account in order to receive emails alerts. When you are signed in, carry out your search in the normal way and click on Save Search History


Give your search a name, chosse type AutoAlert and fill in the other details
Choose your required format and click on Save
When you receive your results you will be able to link from the emailed records to the records in the database. You can modify or delete your alerts at any time by clicking on Saved Searches/Alerts
