The Public Library of Cincinnati and Hamilton County - RSS Feeds!!

November 15th, 2004

I was walking back to the hotel tonight with Greg Schwartz and he mentioned that the The Public Library of Cincinnati and Hamilton County now provides RSS Feeds. So, we went to the business center at the Marriott and he showed me the site.

Wow!! We’re not sure how they are generated (I think that they are manually created, Greg is not sure), but they are incredible! If they are manually run, then the librarians are taking an active roll in RSS technology. Great. Not only do they have a great description of what RSS is (very important), but they have 9 feeds running.
