What is Syndicated content?

Have you subscribed to WCCLS's RSS feed to have new titles delivered to your desktop?

Wondering what is?

RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication. RSS is a simple way to distribute information from websites. It allows you to receive information from your favorite websites to one area, your RSS reader.

To get started download an RSS reader (which is available from numerous sites on the Internet). Some are free and some are fee based. Here is a quick list of a few. Once you have the RSS reader loaded you can now subscribe to feeds wherever you see the orange RSS image .
To subscribe to an RSS feed simply click on the button and copy the url (web address) that appears and paste it into your RSS reader.

An alternate method is to click and drag the RSS icon, and drop it into the RSS address/URL field on your reader site. The method you use will depend on the RSS reader you have.

Don't forget to subscribe to the RSS New Title list from WCCLS!
