Saved Search Alerts (EBSCOhost: Result List: web 2.0 AND academic libraries AND uk)

EBSCOhost: Result List: web 2.0 AND academic libraries AND uk

As you can (hopefully) see, this is a permanent link to my search results on EBSCO.  I have also set up a saved search alert via Feedly, so I should receive regular updates when new articles on Web 2.0 are added to the database.

Table of Contents (TOCs)

Have explored ZETOC (and briefly JournalTOCs) in order to create a Table of Contents email alert as part of the fifth challenge, looking at current awareness, so I am now receiving TOCs for Nursery World,  which we subscribe to in hardcopy already, and which is used by the Child Care students at this site.  These TOCs are delivered to my Feedly feed reader.

Feedly Feed Reader

This week's 23 Things challenge has revolved around current awareness and RSS feeds.  I have already begun receiving email notifications of various blogs I am following, and am very aware that this flow of information is only going to increase - probably exponentially - as I continue.  As I don't really want my inbox to be overwhelmed with these things I've decided to receive them via a feed reader instead.  This sounds rather technical and off putting, but it actually isn't. I've opted to use Feedly as it's popular and attractive (how shallow I am!) - and seems quite straightforward to use. As a result I can organise my various feeds into particular categories (for example 23 Things, general Web 2.0, and my subject liaison areas), and easily see what I have and haven't yet read.  All good so far!
