Two-day WorldCat Hackathon in New York City on November 7-8
Hackathon will focus on using Web services and library-related APIs. This isn't just for library staff though. Any developer who is interested in playing with LOTS of data should attend.
You'll hear about the growing set of APIs from OCLC, and you'll also receive a list of other APIs you may find useful to create innovative mash-ups. NYPL Labs and OCLC are sponsoring this event.
We will work collaboratively over the two days in a convenient setting at the Science, Industry, and Business Library in Manhattan. There is a $30 fee for the two-day event, and breakfast, lunch and a t-shirt are provided. Register on the Web site.
