Using Ingenta

Before you can receive Table of Contents or Saved Search Alerts, you must set up an Ingenta account.

To sign up for an Ingenta account:

Go to Ingenta and choose "Sign Up Here"

Fill out the registration form. Only those fields marked with an asterisk are required.

To set up Table of Contents services

After you've registered, make sure you are logged in, and choose "Browse Publications."

When you get to the Browse Publications screen, you can find your journal title in the alphabetical list, look in a specific subject area for a journal of interest, or use the Quick Search on the right side of the screen to search for a title.

When you find the title you are interested in, click on it to go to its page, and look for the words "Receive New Issue Alert." Click on it and Ingenta will e-mail you the Table of Contents of this journal when it is updated.

To set up a Search Alert

First, perform the Searches that you want Ingenta to save. After you have performed the search, click on the words "Search History."

Choose the searches that you are interested in saving and select Save from the drop-down menu and press the Go button.

Go to the Saved Searches tab and select the searches that you want to be set up as alerts. Select "Create Alert" from the drop-down menu and press the Go button. Your search will now be run weekly and the results e-mailed to you.
