The EBSCO platform supports two types of alerts: Journal Alerts and Search Alerts. This means you can add alerts to your account to notify you when a specific journal adds content or when new records have been added matching the parameters of a saved search.
NOTE: To create an alert, you must Sign In.
Click the "MyEBSCO" link located at the top right of any page and then the "Sign in to MyEBSCO" button to enter your personalized workspace where you can save your resources to Project Folders and even share folders with a group.

If it's your first time signing in, click the "Continue personalized" button.

Because your EBSCOhost account works across the full platform, your folders are available any EBSCOhost database.
After signing in to MyEBSCO you have access to: projects, saved, recent activity, and alerts.
