ProQuest RSS Feeds and Alerts

You can create an RSS feed to automatically notify you when new documents that match your search criteria are available in one of the ProQuest databases that we subscribe to.

Creating RSS Feeds

1. When viewing Search Results, click on Create RSS Feed:
   
   
2. A new window will open, showing details for your RSS feed:
   
   
3. Copy the URL displayed next to "Your RSS Feed."
4. Add the URL to your RSS Reader, or integrate it into your webpage.

The first time you access your RSS feed, no new documents will be available. However, as soon as new documents are available, your feed will be updated automatically with new information.

Creating Email Alerts

Once you have set up a search alert, you will receive an email that will include a results list similar in layout to the standard ProQuest search results page, including links to the pertinent information. This email can include up to 50 results. At the bottom of the page, you will see a view all search results link. Click this link to rerun the search, showing both the newly published information and all previous information.

Near the top of the email you will see a Delete this alert link. Click this link to delete the alert, so you no longer receive updated results.
