Tip of the Week · Feature

Get daily NRC news and reports on your phone

Every weekday, the NRC updates its event notification log. This information is made available to the public here. . . .

http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/doc-collections/event-status/event/

It also publishes other information, such as news releases and website updates.

If you use a smart phone, you can have this information automatically updated and easily available at your fingertips, daily. The trick is to subscribe to the NRC’s RSS feeds, located here:

http://www.nrc.gov/public-involve/rss.cfm

To do so, you need an RSS reader app. I like Feedly because it’s free. It has a simple, clean interface. But, there are others available for you to try out if it doesn’t suit your taste.
