News

ProQuest News allows you to create News Alerts for specific topics that interest you. For example, say you are interested in the latest articles regarding vaccines and vaccinations for Covid-19. You can create an alert for this topic and you will receive a link for the latest news articles in your email. (See the Search Tips page in this guide for information on creating effective searches.)

First, run a search query in ProQuest News:

You can then select any or all of the newspapers in the database you wish to search:

After running the search, click on the Save search/alert link and select Create alert from the dropdown menu:

You will then be prompted to create news alerts according to the parameters you choose, including how often you wish to receive alerts: Daily, weekly, monthly or quarterly.

If you need assistance with creating news alerts, please Ask a Librarian.
