After you refine your search terms and are finding some useful results, many of the databases provide you with a feature to "set up a search alert". By doing so, whenever an item (article, report, dissertation, etc) pertaining to your search terms is found, you will be alerted to it. It's like having a research assistant working with you 24/7!
You will need to poke around to find this feature since every database interface looks a little different (or ask your librarian). Here are some screenshots showing location for some of the more frequently-used databases.
Provide some workable search terms that yield useful results first. Then look for the option according to the database you are using (or Google Scholar). You will need to set up a free account for that database.
