COPAC search alerts

Today I learned that you can set up search alerts on COPAC and get the results sent to you by RSS. 

Here's what you have to do:

1. Run your search on COPAC
2. On search screen click on the RSS icon
3. From the RSS page, copy and paste the URL into your RSS feeder

This could be a good way to be informed of new books in your field although, of course, it will alert you to "new to COPAC" books rather than solely recently published titles. Because you can filter your search by library, it could also be used to keep up-to-date with new items in libraries that don't offer their own RSS feeds, though the effectiveness of this depends on how often the library in question chooses to update its holdings information on COPAC.
