Frequently Asked Questions
How do I find out about the new volumes in the ICS series?
Visit our new publications page, which is updated as soon as a new volume is published. Additionally, you can request to be added to the mailing list for the ICS newsletter. This is sent out free of charge four times a year, and contains full details of new and forthcoming volumes. This allows you to place your order ahead of publication, and often to take advantage of pre-publication offers.

How can I ensure my library receives every volume in the ICS series?
For information about sending ICS Volume information to your Library, visit Library Collections. Send an
e-mail to your librarian who can take out a standing order for either the complete series, or subject-specific subsets. Not only does this represent a 10% saving on the purchase of each individual volume, but ensures that each book is automatically dispatched to your library as soon as it is published. Visit our Purchasing pages.

Can I be alerted by email to forthcoming books in my particular field?
Of course. Signing up to ContentsDirect [External Link] offers you the option of specifying your subject area of interest. You will then be alerted of all forthcoming books in your field, as well as journal tables of contents (if you wish) pre-publication. Another free service from Elsevier to help you keep in touch with the latest research in your area of expertise.
