The fact that we can then provide links to Full-Text or ToC seems like a nice touch, but was an afterthought in a way - I needed to put somekind of link in the RSS feed, and a ToC link seemed more useful than (for example) a link into the library catalogue to the record for the journal.

A growing number of journals publishers are producing TOCs in RSS.
