Competency Four: RSS Feeds

I chose to look for RSS feeds on the School Library Journal website (www.slj.com) first before using any search engines. For another class, I needed to choose a professional journal to analyze and in my research, I came across this website. The website looks to have a lot of good, usable information for my chosen field of school librarianship. As such, when needing to find an RSS feed for this class, I decided to look at the site see if they had an RSS feed, and not only did they have one, but they have many. I chose :"School Library Journal - Breaking News" because it is the main one for the journal.

After rereading my post, I decided to go back and actually look through all of the other RSS feeds and came across "School Library Journal - Teens News." I decided to add this one to my blog as well since this might provide information more specific to my current job as an 8th grade teacher.

There are actually quite a few that look like they could be intersting:

Censorship News
Copyright News
Digital Resources News
Gadgets News
Library Tools and Trends News
Professional Reading News
Web 2.0 News
School Library Journal's Battle of the (Kids') Books
Websites News
Popular Pages
