SmartCILP profiles can be changed at any time, allowing subscribers to tailor the delivery of CILP notifications to their changing research needs.

Users may manage and edit their own SmartCILP profiles​ through MyHein. Particular individuals may also become authorized to manage the SmartCILP profiles of the faculty or staff at their subscribing institution. Access our step-by-step guides to both scenarios below.
