Environmental Health Perspectives Announces Availability of New Notification System
RSS links now available to alert readers of recent articles
Research Triangle Park, NC -- Environmental Health Perspectives (EHP),
a peer-reviewed scientific journal, announced today that it now offers a new
system
to notify readers as soon as articles are published online.
This system, known as RSS Feed (or Real Simple Syndication Feed), allows webmasters
and content providers to instantly release information to prospective readers.
With the addition of RSS Feed to the EHP website, researchers can now easily
keep track of the latest in-press EHP articles without having to manually check
the website; the RSS Feed software automatically checks for updates. E-mailed
notifications allow researchers to scan new article titles, which contain links
to the accompanying original article.
Users seeking up-to-the-minute EHP research articles can take advantage of
this system by simply visiting the EHP website at www.ehponline.org, right-clicking
on the “XML” tag, copying the URL, and pasting it into their preferred
news aggregator. There are many free news aggregators, including MyYahoo (my.yahoo.com)
through which users can organize a variety of RSS feeds into a personalized
news page.
“
Because there is so much demand for a notification method, we elected to provide
this important service to our readers. This system will help researchers and
other readers easily keep track of new articles,” said Dr. Thomas Goehl,
editor-in-chief of EHP.
EHP also expects to implement RSS links for press releases, latest issues,
and career opportunities in the future. More information is available online
at http://www.ehponline.org/.
Brogan & Partners Convergence Marketing handles marketing and public relations
for EHP, and is responsible for creation and distribution of this press release.
