To RSS Feed, or Not? or, Check your SCLS blog registration
There will be a lot going on with SCLS Technology and ILS services in 2019 (new Enterprise wireless solution and migration to Bibliovation). We will be using our respective blogs to relay updates about these changes, and all other Tech (Technology News) and ILS (LINK2.0Koha) news. Now is a good time to make sure that you are signed up for these blogs so that you don't miss a detail. Most SCLS blogs can be followed by signing up for an RSS feed or via email subscription (see below for a list).
Thinking about our blogs made me wonder if RSS feeds are still a "thing." I haven't used an RSS reader in years. They DO still exist and the reasons to use them are still the same. Check out this SCLS Tech Bits blog from 2009--it's still valid today. Here is an article from Wired that advocates for an RSS Revival.
So, if you are interested in trying out RSS feeds, the Wired article lists a few.
Here is a summary of where to follow each SCLS blog:
