Shiny Happy Librarian
August 24th, 2005Have you noticed my 1991 REM theme this week (2 “Shiny Happy” mentions in so many days)? There’s a reason for my happiness: Education/Library blogs that are focused solely on syndication.
I mentioned RSS4Lib alot this month and Thomson Peterson’s–Syndication for Higher Ed once. Both are highly worthy of subscibing to if you want to read about amazing examples of syndication in educational settings.
Case in point: Today, RSS4Lib linked to the University of Alabama library catalog feeds and Syndication for Higher Ed mentioned the numerous feeds that were launched by the University of Sydney.
I think that we’re finally moving to the next step in RSS in education. More and more blogs are focusing primarily on resources and tools for the syndicated education/library community. Thus, I am a shiny happy librarian.
