Search Alerts: Create an Account

Want to collect research information for your project on an ongoing basis? Set a search alert, and save yourself time and trouble in the long run.

Creating an Account

Once you have narrowed down your search and are finding great results, you'll want to create an account. You can do that by clicking the "Sign In" button at the top of the page. If you don't have an account, follow the instructions for a new account below the "Sign In" button.

Remember that if you are off-campus or on a mobile device, you will need to login to the Ferrum Library collection using these instructions. Please remember that this process does not automatically set you up with an OneSearch account! You'll need to create that separately!

The account is free, and you can use it for more than just search results: you can collect articles and information for a variety of research projects in different folders, and you can share citations and articles more easily. Highly encouraged!
