Inspired by my niece who has the condition, these feeds are for those suffering from epilepsy, their families or health professionals.

Sue if there's a prize for getting these assignments done quickly you must be in the running for it!
This is showing me how we could use a Blog to get information out to our library users (although I have to admit I'm still not sure how useful blogging is for this compared to Web pages with RSS feeds). I suppose if we were Blogging in a work related capacity we would have to add some sort of disclaimer to the page re; the accuracy, timeliness etc of the content from these sites.

I think Helen has raised some good questions here. Some libraries choose to generate RSS feeds from Web pages; some put all their efforts on blogging. Which is more effective in reaching out to users? Or should the question be about how libraries package their services in general to make them more relevant to users?
