* What is an RSS feed?

RSS feeds provide a good way of keeping up-to-date with new developments, materials and services provided by the library. RSS can stand for “Really Simply Syndication” or “Rich Site Summary” but in either case is a method of publishing frequently updated information via simple XML.

In order to effectively make use of RSS you need to use an RSS aggregator. There are many web-based online aggregators available. These usually require you to register, then all you need to do is simply cut and paste the URL of the RSS feed into an “Add subscription” or “Add Feed/RSS by URL” box to start viewing the content. Commonly used online aggregators include:

  • The Old Reader
  • Bloglines
  • My Yahoo!
  • NewsGator

Many web browsers now include automatic checking for RSS feeds when you visit a website, and display an icon when they find one. This can make subscribing to RSS feeds much simpler.
