Google is making it possible to keep track of the latest titles from your favorite authors and get notified as soon as new books from them become available in Google Books.
In essence, Google is enabling you to "follow" your favorite authors so you don't miss out on their latest work.
"You might not always find out about... new books when they come out. Starting this week, you can set up a Google Alert for books and receive email notices when new books that match your interests become available," Xinxing Gu, Google Books associate product manager,
wrote.
Google is using its existing
Alerts service for this, you can now set up an alert and set its type to "Book."
You can use a keyword to keep track or, you can use a title, an author or something more generic. Once you've set up a book alert, you'll be notified via email when something comes up.
