Subscribe to this Blog by RSS Feed



Sometimes a question from a customer spurs action immediate changes to Connections.

A new reader was kind enough to send me an e-mail asking to be notified of future Connections postings by e-mail. I get updates for the blogs I follow by RSS. Why hadn't I put a RSS feed button on Connections for our readers? DUH!

Here's how I replied to the customer:
I’m glad that you discovered the Beaufort District Collection Connections blog and like it well enough to want to continue to get it. In fact, your inquiry spurred me to take advantage of one of our more tech savvy (you can read that “younger,” if you want) reference librarians, Amanda Brewer. She showed me how to add a RSS feed button to the Connections homepage! In less than 2 minutes we had ourselves a RSS feed button on Connections. I just hadn’t thought to add a RSS feed button nor investigated how to do so.

Just click “Subscribe To This” Posts button and follow the prompts. You should be good to go on your home computer to receive automatic notice when I’ve changed something on Connections. I post “stuff” at least 4 times a month, but more often when something is going on or strikes my fancy to write about or because several customers inquire about a specific topic.


Please feel free to subscribe to the Connections RSS feed if you wish. It'd be great to have "Followers."
