My Portal: Guide to Saved Searches
From My Portal, you can save any searches you run. The next time you log on, you can re-run them, or you can have them run at certain time intervals automatically.
Use this feature to keep track of new books being acquired in a certain subject area, or by a certain author, publisher, or organization.
