Thing 9: RSS feeds

RSS and newsreaders are so cool. I used to have subscriptions to sites in my email account and they would pile up w/o me reading them. Newsreaders allow me to receive up to date links to my favorite sites outside my email. This is also a great way get up to date info by accessing library sites all in one place.

I would like to see our patrons have RSS feeds for interesting sites on new books and technologies offered at the library. These should be easily accessible from our website. That way when they log into their Reader the links are there and they don't have to deal with our difficult city website. Right now it is very hard to even find the Library link from the city site, let alone navigate any further.
