Help: What's New RSS Feed
Abstract: Keep up with Cline Library news by subscribing to the What's New RSS feed.
RSS (Really Simple Syndication) is an XML-based format for sharing web content that is updated frequently, like news headlines. The "What's New at the Library" RSS feed delivers library news headlines to your RSS-enabled web service, browser, e-mail client, or reader. You can also view the feed on the MyNAU portal (once you login, click on the "Today@NAU" tab and scroll down). For more information on the RSS standard, see the Wikipedia entry.
You can easily add RSS feeds to web-based services/readers like iGoogle and My Yahoo.
