Staying Current Using RSS Automatic Updates
RSS is an easy, automated way to stay current with research news, recent journal articles, the latest search results from a few databases (eg., PubMed, Compendex / Engineering Village), and even new tutorials from VCU Libraries. There is a screencast tutorial (3minutes, 19 seconds) that describes how to do this. In addition, workshops (see the library schedule) are taught each semester that describe the use of RSS in more detail than the tutorial.
