Last presentation of the day and Jenny Levine & Stephen Cohen were on the stage. This was pretty much the same presentation she bage at CIL back in March so there was nothing new for me. (They had updated it but nothing Earth-shattering from my POV.) I could tell from the attendees that RSS is still something very new to a significant number of librarians. Now is not the time to assume that RSS is a known quantity. There is still a lot of education to do.
