Bibliographic current awareness services — a review

Abstract

Draws together the various options for current awareness services and assesses the future for such services. Attention is focused on the services offered by text retrieval packages in support of current awareness services. Both microcomputer and minicomputer/mainframe packages are considered. A review of other options for current awareness services discusses services from online hosts, database producers and national libraries. The electronic journal, electronic documents and document delivery services are identified as factors which might influence the nature of future current awareness services.
