How to set up journal contents alert emails from
individual journals via publisher website
If you search for the title of your preferred journal using Google or another search engine, you
should be able to find the name of the publisher on the website. Be careful, as some journals have
very similar titles. Most publishers will ask you to register with them. Check on the individual
website for their privacy policy.
