Benefits of contributing to CASHCentral infrastructureThe database, newsfeeds and email alerts provide an established mechanism for the delivery of current awareness services.
Sharing of informationBy entering items into a central and fully searchable online database, the
information can be shared and re‐used as a supplement to local current awareness initiatives.
Current awareness toolsAccess to Zinepal (www.zinepal.com), which uses the content of newsfeeds and blogs to create PDF bulletins. Content can be pulled from multiple sources, and the individual bulletins edited and reformatted as required.
Support network
