Capella learners, faculty and staff all have access to this resource.  Here are some instructions to setting up an email alert for the highlights of the daily issue and how to access the full text of articles that interest you.

To set up an email alert (this alerts you to the contents of the most current issue): 

Click the Journal and Book Locator link on the Library Web site through iGuide and type the Chronicle of Higher Education in the search box. Several access options come up, make sure you click on the Publishers Site link for the most current issue.

To sign up for the daily e-mail of highlights from the Chronicle, scroll down on the page and click the link for Chronicle e-mail alerts (see below).  After you sign up you will get the daily email.

Once you have the email and you want to see the full text of an article (or anytime you have a citation for the Chronicle and want to see the article), go again to the Journal and Book Locator on the Library’s Web site, search for the Chronicle and click the Publisher’s Site link. The picture below highlights the links to the current and back issues.

Set up a Journal Alert or Table of Contents Alert using the Library databases. The email will contain a list of the articles in the newest issue and with links to the abstract and full text if available in the Library.

How do I do this? Use our Setting Up Journal or Search Alerts Guide.

Ask a Librarian with questions.
