"Stanford University Library's HighWire Press began in early 1995 
with the online production of the weekly Journal of Biological 
Chemistry (JBC), the most highly cited (and second largest) peer-
reviewed journal. Scientists and societies rapidly saw the potential 
for new forms and features of scientific communication, and Science 
and Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences soon joined 
JBC online."

My Email Alerts and PDA Channels (Requires sign in or register for 
a free account)

eTOCs allow you to receive in email either complete Tables of 
Contents (from both current and future content) or notification that 
an issue has just gone online. You can also sign up to receive 
announcements from journal publishers and, where available, 
weekly or daily pre- print publication announcements.

CiteTrack will alert you by email whenever new content in our 
participating journals is published. You determine which journals 
should be covered, and the alerts are sent whenever new content 
matches criteria based on the topics (keywords/subjects of interest), 
authors (individuals whose work you are following) and articles 
(when a paper of interest is referenced by another paper or letter) 
you want to track. 

Subscription Alerts help you manage your different journal 
subscriptions by providing email alerts about subscription expiration 
dates.
