STN alerts (SDIs) can now be delivered by RSS feeds. New RSS alert delivery on STN:

• Allows you to easily distribute STN alert results throughout your organization to support critical research and business decisions.
• Supports your workflow by seamlessly integrating with most commercially available RSS readers and custom applications, such as portals.

To set up a new alert for RSS delivery, just enter RSS as the method of delivery during the STN SDI set-up process. Existing alerts can be changed to RSS delivery using the SDI EDIT command. Alerts being delivered by RSS can also be delivered to specific email addresses simultaneously by including these addresses in the Optional Email IDs section of the SDI set-up. At the completion of the SDI set-up process, you will receive the URL for the RSS feed, which can be accessed by any standard RSS reader to display the results.
