A subscription facsimile system (10) of the type in which providers supply new documents (20) for storing the images in a centralized database (42). Subscribers (14) register with a system (30, 70) as to one or more areas of interest. A processor (40) cyclically scans the document database (42) for new documents that have been added (50). The processor correlates the subject matter of the newly added documents to the identity of the subscribers having an interest in the same. The new documents are then automatically broadcasted (60) by way of facsimile (66) to the subscribers (14) who have registered an interest (70) in such subject matter.
