English abstract

Current awareness services are the services that provide information about the latest books, articles, events and news in a field. Nowadays, there are many sources of information and the volume of new research is so huge that keeping oneself up to date is a big task. Current awareness services help us to match current awareness news and information to our needs. They can save the effort of scanning and browsing journals, bulletins, newsletters and web sites.
