Q. How do I create and manage publication alerts for ProQuest?

ProQuest's publication alerts can be set to provide automatic email notification whenever new content becomes available in the ProQuest database you are using. It is not necessary to have a My Research account to subscribe to email alerts. However, if you are signed into your My Research account while creating an alert, you can view and manage all your alerts from within your account. For more information about My Research accounts, see here.
