The Alaska Medical Library offers two methods to help you keep current in your field.
AutoAlerts for specific topics of interest.
A comprehensive search strategy is created for each topic and saved within one or more databases. As each database is updated, the results are either emailed or mailed to you. Updates usually occur weekly. Request this service using our online form (AutoAlert option on menu).
Table of contents for specific journals of interest.
The table of contents is emailed for each journal selected (unless other arrangements are made). Copies of articles can be requested by return
email, online using the online form (choose Journal Article Request from the menu),
or by circling the desired article(s) and faxing the page to the library (786-1608). Requested articles are delivered by emailed as they are received.
NOTE: Copying of articles for this
service is limited by the U.S. Copyright Law.
To begin this service:
- Select titles from the AML list of current medical and nursing journal subscriptions
- Complete the table of contents service request form (Table of Contents Request option on menu).
- The initial processing of your request will occur immediately. Receipt of the table of contents will depend on how frequently the issues are published.
- AML staff will scan or copy the table of contents of each issue as journals are received.
