Hi, This looks like a great resource for someone like me who isn't a developer but wants to learn more about making use of APIs. Thanks for sharing!

So, I made a site that has copy/pasteable code along with instructions on how to implement it (like what exactly to change in the code to make it work with their libguides system, for example). It's a project in ongoing development and I wanted to share it with you all because: * You're nifty * Some (hopefully many!) of you might be interested in using some of my code * Some of you might be interested in contributing new pieces to the site Currently I have implementations for various Springshare products, Quotes.net, and a variety of collections from the Internet Archive. I have plans on making things for the New York Times, Wordnik, OCLC, and Chronicling America (from LOC). Would love to hear comments. I hope you like it. https://www.bradcoffield.com/APIs-for-librarians/ Brad -- Brad Coffield, MLIS Assistant Information and Web Services Librarian Saint Francis University 814-472-3315 <(814)%20472-3315> [email protected] IMPORTANT: This e-mail and any attachments may be confidential.
