Keeping up-to-date with the scholarly literature just became much easier,
thanks to a new service called ticTOCs  - Journal Tables of Contents
Service.

http://www.tictocs.ac.uk

ticTOCs is a new scholarly journal tables of contents (TOCs) service.  It's
free, its easy to use, and it provides access to the most recent tables of
contents of over 11,000 scholarly journals from more than 400 publishers.  It
helps scholars, researchers, academics and anyone else keep up-to-date with
what's being published in the most recent issues of journals on almost any
subject.

Using ticTOCs, you can find journals of interest by title, subject or
publisher, view the latest TOC, link through to the full text of over
250,000 articles (where institutional or personal subscriptions, or Open
Access, allow), and save selected journals to MyTOCs so that you can view
future TOCs (free registration is required if you want to permanently save
your MyTOCs).  ticTOCs also makes it easy to export selected TOC RSS feeds
to popular feedreaders such as Google Reader and Bloglines, and in addition
you can import article citations into RefWorks (where institutional or
personal subscriptions allow).

You select TOCs by ticking those of interest - thousands of TOCs, within a
tick or two (hence the name ticTOCs).

ticTOCs has been funded under the JISC Users & Innovations programme, and
has been developed by an international consortium consisting of the
University of Liverpool Library (lead), Heriot-Watt University, CrossRef,
ProQuest, Emerald, RefWorks, MIMAS, Cranfield University, Institute of
Physics, SAGE Publishers, Inderscience Publishers, DOAJ (Directory of Open
Access Journals), Open J-Gate, and Intute.
