Information Research Weblog

Searching around for information on journals in the information field with RSS feeds, I came across the Documents in Information Science site. Although hosted at the University of Manchester, this service is run by a group representing Spain, Italy and the USA. The site covers more than 150 journals and more than sixty conference proceedings.

Information Research is not yet one of the journals listed, but it will be before long, since my first reaction was to contact the organizers. The reason I am interested is that the site includes RSS feeds for the journal contents. I can put a link to that feed on the journal contents pages and then anyone will be able to include the journal in their news aggregator.

And, writing of news aggregators - take a look at NewzCrawler a very nifty aggregator which retains the look and feel of the news reader in Outline Express. NewzCrawler comes with some pre-set channels in various sectors, but, of course, if you know the rss feeds for others, you can add them.
