Notifications from AMS

AMS notifies users of changes within the system, such as new digital items that were added to the archive, or existing items that were changed. To view the active notifications:

1. Click the bell icon in the upper right corner. This will open the “Notifications” page.

You can adjust how AMS notifies you of additions and changes, so that you can receive either general and collection-specific notifications by email or simply see these updates only when logged in. To adjust your notification settings:

1. Click on “Hi, [Your First Name]” at the upper right corner, where [Your First Name] is the name set for your AMS profile.
2. Click “My Profile” from the drop-down menu that appears. This will open the Profile page.
3. Click on the “Notification Settings” link on the left hand sidebar within the profile page.
4. From the Notification Settings page, you can select if you want to receive emails from AMS, or notifications only for a specific collection (such as the General collection only, or the Restricted collection only).

In the example below, “HF Test User” will receive emails from the AMS Demo, not including the General or Restricted collections:
