Week 4

I like the idea that RSS gives you the ability to selectively filter sites that you know will be of intereset to you. I have chosen 3 library feeds, the Powerhouse feed, a craft feed [I'm a Children's Librarian] and the National Geographic feed. I can see a lot of potential for RSS in the LIbrary environment for both Librarians and their clients. As Libraries embrace this technology clients will be able to select RSS feeds that interest them - say Children's activities, teen activities, new resources such as large print, audio, DVD - the list is endless.
