Using an RSS feed, you can receive updates when new preprints are added to a preprint provider. Once you've generated the RSS feed, you will need to use a feed aggregator, such as Feedly to receive updates.
While we don't directly offer RSS to email services, there are a variety of free tools available that will provide this functionality such as Blogtrottr or using Feedly along with IFTTT to send updates to a variety of locations, including email.
1. Search preprints from SHARE
Go to the SHARE landing page, and click Preprints.
You will be taken to the "SHARE Discover" page where a list of preprints will appear.
In the "Source" sidebar, select or type in the source by which you want to filter.
Search results will be filtered accordingly.
Refine your search with keywords
You can refine your search by using Lucene search syntax. See the following examples for help in choosing the correct syntax.
| Search by | Example syntax | How the search will work |

| Date | dates:[2016-01-01 TO 2017-01-01]dates:[2016-01-01 TO 2017-01-01} | Use open and closed square brackets to indicate inclusive an inclusive date range. Results will show all works within that time frame. Use an open square bracket and a closed curly bracket to indicate an inclusive date and an exclusive date.

Refine your search with Boolean operators
You can refine your search even further by including or exluding search terms in and from your query. See the following examples for help in choosing the correct syntax.
