IngentaConnect Search Alerts

March 27, 2009

Due to budget constraints, dwindling usage, and recent information from the vendor the KU Libraries have decided to cancel its subscription to Ingenta Table of Contents/Keyword Alerts. Thank you to everyone who responded to my call for comments. Almost everyone that replied informed me that they could utilize alternatives. We also just received word from Ingenta that they will no longer even offer this service for their "Fax/Ariel" content which is the bulk of the journal titles our patrons were interested in.

If you need to see your list of Ingenta Table of Contents/Keyword Alerts please log into Ingenta and save your list of alerts by March 31, 2009. We anticipate that this information will not be available after March 31, 2009. If you need assistance with this please contact Lars Leon, lleon@ku.edu or 864-3073.

For help on finding alternative sources for alerts please consult: http://www.lib.ku.edu/public/research/MedicineHealth/Alerts.shtml or
