Subject: CINAHL EBSCOhost email alerts does not include more than 100 hits
Sorry for cross-posting
Dear All,
I had a difficulty getting the results of my saved alerts in my email and so I contacted EBSCOhost.
The problem is that if you have saved/set an email alert for CINAHL via EBSCOhost and the number of search results that you are receiving in your email inbox is more than 100 hits, there is no verified way to
see the results 101 onwards even login into you account in EBSCOhost you cannot see all the hits.
I changed my alert timing from monthly to weekly to solve this issue by getting more emails with less hits. The other method is re-running the searches and limiting the search to past one month [then wat is
the point of setting alerts].
Currently there is no solusion by EBSCOhost for this issue and just wanted to let you know before setting alerts in this interface because there is no notification from EBSCO about this error.
Bests,
Farhad
