That feature is setting alerts for new material that appears in Google Scholar and matches a predefined search term.
In this new video (embedded below) I demonstrate how to create a library of resources in Google Scholar as well as how to create Google Scholar Alerts that will notify you when new content related to your research appears in Google Scholar.
