OCLC is excited to offer a new DevConnect Online webinar series starting this March. The purpose of DevConnect Online is to provide you with a foundation on which you can build OCLC API expertise and gain the confidence to lead or participate in API projects at your library.
Each webinar is led by either OCLC staff, community leaders, or partners. This year’s content covers a variety of topics and skill levels, including getting started with OCLC APIs, streamlining cataloging workflows with Google Apps Script, and resolving access issues with Lean Library plug-in.
