feed me

So I've found a lawley & library related blog to feed on:  mamamusings - Liz Lawley's 'thoughts on technology, academia, family, and tangential topics'. Liz Lawley is the Director, RIT Lab for Social Computing, Rochester Institute of Technology and is (today, in fact) giving a presentation at the Internet Librarian 2010 conference in California . I now have the mamamusings RSS feed in my Google Reader.

A few other of library related feeds I've subscribed to for are while are:

• Jessamyn West's librarian.net - 'putting the rarin back in librarian since 1999'
• David Lee King  - 'social web | emerging technologies | libraries'
• LISNews -  'The Cream of the Crop'

..and for something a little bit more humorous there is Awful Library Books (although I actually follow this site via twitter  rather than through their RSS feed).



At Cockburn Libraries, our library catalogue now has the ability to produce RSS feeds from catalogue searches. I have been experimenting with these a little bit, and I've added the RSS feed for the new music CDs search to the right hand column of this blog (& my RSS reader).

Other useful RSS feeds: the feed from the PLO noticeboard is imported into our staff homepage, and there is of course the Cockburn Libraries blog feed to satsify your hunger for all thing Cockburn Libraries
