Here are some newly released RSS feeds that may be of interest to information professionals:
+ The Federal Depository Library Program (part of GPO Access) has an RSS Feed for their news and updates section.
+ Elsevier officially launched their Engineering Village 2 customized feeds this week. From the Ei Update:
"RSS feeds are available with the July 18th release of Engineering Village 2. Users can set their own customized queries and have the benefit of reviewing literature in an integrated way. Used with Compendex, Inspec, or NTIS, users can receive weekly updates fed directly into their aggregators and manage all results in a more efficient manner. These feeds provide direct linking to Engineering Village 2 content and records of relevance can be viewed."
+ The National Academies has 4 RSS feeds including news, new publications, and the current and recent issues of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
