Part 1. I chose Canadian Reference Centre and entered the key words ‘Wiarton Willie’. Then I clicked on create alert for this search and it gave me the following:
http://rss.ebscohost.com/AlertSyndicationService/Syndication.asmx/GetFeed?guid=1320479 .
Part 2. I had no difficulty using Gale’s Academic One File database and creating a search alert to be sent to my email at work. I chose the subject ‘invasive marine species’. Almost instantaneously Gale sent the following message:
Your Gale Search Alert has been successfully created. If you no longer wish to receive this alert, please visit our Unsubscribe page.
3. What a fabulous service – to have alerts sent directly to your email address. I prefer this method but I can see the time-saving value in both.
