Using Amazon Subject Lists to Connect to Library Resources
This app, created during the WorldCat Mashathon 2009 in Seattle, uses the mainstream appeal and popularity of Amazon list feeds (bestsellers, new releases) and mashes them with ISBN numbers in WorldCat, so that the user will go to the library’s copy of the item.In this case, the pipe was specific for WSU’s WorldCat Local implementation.
