Jenny -

The Ann Arbor District Library has a "books blog" feed
of reviews with links to the checkout page in the catalog
for the book.  The user "crazypills" on LiveJournal imported
that feed into that system, you can see her announcement
here:
  http://www.livejournal.com/community/ann_arbor_ypsi/790842.html?style=mine
and the feed itself here:
  http://www.livejournal.com/users/aadl_bookblog/
it also went into the community "ann_arbor_ypsi"
  http://www.livejournal.com/community/ann_arbor_ypsi/

I don't understand Livejournal, but I think it's pretty
cool to get it resyndicated that way.

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,
