This 2 hour workshop will explain how to use RSS, as well as providing guidance on where to find RSS feeds.
RSS is useful for the postgraduate researcher because it means that you can create your own personal homepage that will receive new content from websites and databases in your subject area, such as:
- Journal contents pages
- Searches on academic databases
- Calls for papers
- Blogs in your subject area
- Bookmarks from other researchers in your field
- Google Alerts
Read more about RSS feeds in our guide.
If you would like your attendance noted in PROSE, please book a place through PROSE.
But there is no need to book to attend, you can just come along!
Workshop leader: Sarah Whittaker, University Library.
