RSS Feeds Response to MLA Web 2.0 101 class

How do you think you could use RSS feeds at your library?

I think we could use RSS feeds in our library for our Table of Contents (TOCs) that we provide our patrons. I have in the past set them up with e-mail notifications for the Table of Contents so moving to RSS feeds for the TOCs would be the next step.

How do you think patrons could use RSS feeds?

Once the patrons get use to looking at another place for information they may get use to using RSS feeds. Some of our patrons like to get notification of when new articles come out on a topic and I think the RSS feed would be a great way to do this from PubMed.
