I have heard about RSS for quite a while, but did not know how it works. Thanks to Pollak-Library-10-Thing training program, I have a better understanding now. RSS is cool. This web feature allows you to get current updates from your favorite sites without having to click through each site.
I only briefly dipped my toes into RSS, but I have a feeling that RSS feeds can be integrated into the library’s web content to provide value added library services. Patrons can view new content from multiple web sites in a single interface. For example, we might be able to offer RSS feeds of new articles on a specific topic from many journals, or new search result in many library databases.
