Reading the blog in Microsoft Outlook

Did you know that you can set up a feed for WordPress blogs in Outlook and you can then read blog posts in the same way that you read your email?

If you’d like to do so, please follow these steps:

  1. Right-click on the ‘RSS Feeds’ folder in the left-hand pane of Outlook and choose ‘Add a New RSS Feed…’ from the menu
  2. Paste the following into the ‘New RSS feed’ box which appears and click ‘Add’:
    https://blogs.ucl.ac.uk/open-access/feed/
  3. Answer ‘Yes’ to the ‘Add this RSS Feed to Outlook’ window which follows

A new folder called ‘Open access funding’ should then appear under the ‘RSS Feeds’ folder in the left-hand pane and blog posts will appear here.

Note: If you select ‘Advanced’ from the ‘Add this RSS Feed to Outlook’ window you can opt to get the full article rather than a link to it.
