Can I still get the Academe Today email every day?
Academe
Today, the daily email report, remains an exclusive benefit for
those who have individual subscriptions. However, the daily news
items are still available on the Chronicle
home page; also, the Chronicle
makes available several news feeds in RSS (Really Simple
Syndication), including its daily news.
Can I set up an RSS feed of the Chronicle and get the equivalent of the daily news e-mail?
The Chronicle
makes available several news feeds in RSS (Really Simple
Syndication), including its daily news. However, note that Academe Today and the RSS daily
news feed are close but not quite the same:
Academe Today (available only to individual subscribers) includes daily alerts which consists of a headline/link to full story followed by a sentence or two of description; so does the RSS daily news feed. But every edition of Academe Today also includes links and references to content that it is in the weekly newspaper, as well as links to online discussion, essays in the Chronicle Review; career guidance posted on the job portion of its web site, Chronicle Careers; and postings on its other web site, Arts and Letters Daily.
In the works is a weekly RSS that would act as a guide to the printed newspaper.
