 What
is an RSS Feed?
RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication. It's an easy, no-hassle
way of getting late-breaking news in your field of study or research delivered
automatically to you. An RSS reader automatically lets you view the news you
sign up for, just like e-mail.
There are many readers available for download,
both free and for a fee. See the Google
Directory list of newsreaders for a good list to choose from. Once you either
sign up for free reader, all you do is copy and paste a web address into
it and you'll automatically receive news related to that topic.
The reader automatically checks for new content and delivers it to you via your
RSS reader.
This is a pilot program, the URL prefix: http://libproxy.library.wmich.edu/login?url=
will need to be added to the URL of the content in order to properly authenticate
and connect to the resource.
