+**SEO & LLM Readiness (PR #92):**
+- **Hreflang alternate tags** — Every frontend page emits `<link rel="alternate" hreflang>` for all active locales plus `x-default`, enabling search engines and AI models to link language variants together
+- **RSS 2.0 feed** — `/feed.xml` endpoint with the latest 50 books (title, author, description, publication date), autodiscovery `<link>` in layout, and `Feed:` directive in robots.txt
+- **Sitemap expansion** — Events now included in sitemap with locale-prefixed URLs; feed.xml added as global entry
+- **RSS icon in footer** — SVG feed icon next to the "Powered by Pinakes" attribution

 - **CSV export cleanup** — `descrizione` follows `sottotitolo`, HTML tags stripped for clean output
