RSS Feeds

I have not used RSS or newsreaders before this exercise. I like the fact you can customize feeds to topics of interest. This technology will save time for both my work and personal life. At work I can quickly have access to library related blogs and information. Personally, I can learn more about important news events or hobbies and interests.

Libraries should take advantage of RSS technology by sending new, customized product info (book, DVD, etc) or programming info to customers who want to subscribe to feeds created by the library. This will be great for OCL. Customizing what we do for our customers has been considered for several years.
