25 Awesome Beta Research Tools from Libraries Around the World & RSS, wonder of the web.
25 library research tools, posted on collegedegree.com - the best one is #7, just because my partner developed it 
Well, actually a bit more than that. She set up an RSS - real simple syndication - feed for new arrivals in the University Library. It is the best way to keep track of lots of different streams of information. Personally I use google reader (o’course) to aggregate all the blogs and web news feeds I read. You may even be using a feed reader to read this! Lots of software can do this for you - mac mail, outlook, firefox… but I prefer the online ones like reader and bloglines.
