What is RSS? What is RSS?
RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication, a way to easily distribute frequently-changing content such as news, notices and events to you without you having to constantly visit our website.
How do I use it?
RSS feeds can be read using software called an RSS reader, feed reader or an aggregator. You subscribe to a feed by entering the feed's link into the reader or by clicking an RSS icon 
which will initiate the subscription process.
Every time new content is added to the NPS site, your newsreader will pick it up. You can subscribe to a general ‘what’s new at NPS’ feed that includes most new content published here, or subscribe to the item of your choice.
The easiest way to add a feed is to right-click on the orange RSS icon (or ctrl, click for Mac users) for the feeds that interest you, select ‘copy shortcut’ or ’copy link location’ from the pop-up menu and paste it into the appropriate place in your RSS reader.
Where can I get a reader?
There are several reader programs available for all platforms, many of which are free. See a list of readers here.
Some newer web browsers offer similar functionality already built-in which will detect whether the website you are viewing offers an RSS feed and will then let you create a constantly-updated list of links in your 'bookmarks' menu, for example, Internet Explorer 7, Firefox and Safari.
