Thing 18 - Library Worm

The first thing I did was look at School Libraries under Feed Categories. I saw the feeds from Huntingtown High School and it sure piqued my interest! I guess that's the whole purpose. Let subscribers know what's going on! I've always thought of RSS feeds from news and weather sources, but not from my library! It makes it seem like there's something exciting going on and I'd love to figure out how to make that happen! I'm still kind of unsure about it all, but I looked at a couple of articles like this one called How Do I Subscribe to an RSS Feed by Dave Taylor, and it's making a little more sense. I get how to subscribe to one and how it would help me stay "in the know," but I'm more interested in letting customers (students/parents) get the latest from our website (library) without having to visit the site. So now I'm wondering how to do that, and can we even do that? I guess I'll ask Jason @ Ingen if that's something we can do. It would be fun for running contests, etc...
