From your search results list or from the Issues page, you can request notification when new content, which matches your search criteria, is added to the database. The system can check for new content on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis and send you an email message when updates are found. Or you may subscribe to an RSS feed, provided by Gale, and have content delivered to you.
