Halfway through the semester! Although I'm glad to be almost done, I'm a little bit worried about by Staff Development presentation. Even though it's not due for a few weeks, it's snuck up on me and it's a HUGE project. I wish I had started it yesterday.
More positively, I was reallt interested in Richarson's chapter on RSS feeds. I'm interested in them and can see good applications for classroom teachers, but I've had a hard time seeig what exactly they could be used for in the library. Richardson's explanation of the ability to subscribe to updates everytime a keyword has been published is just the application I've been looking for. This is great for research and I think students will love it because it's easy. It's also a great opportunity to teach evaluation of sources, because obviously many of the blogs that mention a keyword won't be appropriate sources to use for information.
