The Infodome Dispatch

From Marilyn, a link to the U of Notre Dame Library webiste strategic plan.

Some links on RSS feeds, for future reference:

The term ‘RSS’ either sounds sort of scary or it means nothing to a lot of people. But really, it’s just a tool to pull web content into one easy-to-read place. And it’s easy to set up, too. The first two links below are background on RSS. The second two are techie stuff on how to set it up on our Website.

• Definition of RSS - from Wikipedia
• A List Apart’s RSS Feed page - with some good links to other info, plus it’s a nice example to crib from when we do RSS.
• Making an RSS Feed - a tutorial from SearchEngineWatch
• ListGarden RSS Feed Generator - even better - looks easy, and it’s free.

One product I’ve seen in use: BosDates
