[Web4lib] Displaying RSS feeds externally?

We have offered/promoted our RSS feeds to other local
institutions...last time I checked, none of them had taken the bait.

Most of our RSS usage (other than known bots/aggregators) seems to come
from people using Amphetadesk or similar tools to read the feed
directly.

Is anyone - or does anyone know of a library that is - displaying their
internally-generated RSS feeds of headlines, catalog acquisitions, or
anything else on someone else's web site? For example, a local
government web site, a parent organization's home page, an academic
department's web site, a class web site, etc.? TIA,
