The Alerts tab is visible to users who sign in to InSite, and enables them to set legislation and meeting alerts. Alerts are e-mail updates of the latest relevant search results based on your search terms. If your initial search doesn't produce immediate results, you can create an alert for the search terms in order to receive e-mails if your search terms are added to the Legislation or Calendar pages.
