Create alerts in Google Scholar

You've all heard of Google Scholar , but did you know you can now use it to create alerts for your searches? Step 1: Search as usual for a keyword/author Step 2: Click on the envelope symbol (in the bar at the top of your search results) Step 3: Enter your email address (this will happen automatically if you're logged in to another Google service) Then all you have to do is sit back and wait for new items matching your search criteria to be delivered to your email.

Use your iPhone for research!

Online database Scopus have just brought out an iPhone app that allows you to use the searching and alerting features of scopus on the move, and even to tweet references. For more information search for Scopus Alerts (lite) on iTunes or the Scopus website .
