Stay up-to-date with the latest journals published on the Oxford platform

By

 Our NHS users can access a collection of journals on the Oxford platform. You can easily stay up-to-date with your favourite titles by setting up an alert or eTOC. You’ll then get an email with details of the latest issue in your inbox.

Follow these step-by-step instructions to find whether we subscribe to the journal title you need.

Check our previous blog post to learn what an eTOC is.

Set up an alert on a journal from Oxford by following the steps below:

How to set up a journal alert on an Oxford journal title

1. Link to the Oxford platform

I am going to set up an etoc alert for the journal Brain which is published by Oxford. Click the link for Oxford on the journal title entry on the NHS A-Z journals list.

Entry on the A-Z journals list for Brain

You will be taken to the journal page on Oxford Journals.

To create your journal alert, page down until you reach the Stay up-to-date box. Click the Sign up link.

Register your email address and set up a password. You’ll use this to manage your alerts. Click the box to confirm that you wish to register for the journal alerts. You will now receive an email containing the table of contents for the journal title when a new issue is published.

3. Access Full-Text

See an example of an etoc sent for the journal Brain. Click the article link in the email to go to the article. Login via your OpenAthens username to access the full-text.

Unsubscribe

1. To stop the alerts…

Log in to Oxford Journals with your alerts account (email address and password)

From the account options select Email Alerts. You can see which journals you have an alert set up for.

Select the Delete option next to the journal title you want to unsubscribe.
