After a quick welcome at 10am, we’ll break off into two separate tracks – one room for WorldCat Search API hacking and another room for DPLA API hacking. API specialists will be on hand to give an introduction to each API and discuss what you can do with the APIs. At 11am, the hacking begins!

We’ll regroup at 4:30pm and everyone will have a chance to showcase what they learned and created during the day. After the event we’ll head out for food, drinks, and merriment, venue TBA.
