OCLC Grid Services Boot Camp About the WorldCat API Bruce Washburn Consulting Software Engineer, OCLC

The Basics OpenSearch and SRU searches XML responses RSS, Atom, MARC21 XML, Dublin Core

The Basics Lots of indexes for authenticated users Limit results by holding library Other users search a subset of indexes, like those in WorldCat.org

The Basics Sort by relevance, author, title, date, and more List libraries that hold a title Sort holding libraries geographically Get standard citations … APA, Chicago, Harvard, MLA, and Turabian

The Search API overview describes all of its features with working examples, links to other resources, and more. Find the overview on the OCLC Developers Network site at Implementers Overview

Test Requests and Responses The URI Evaluator offers an easy way to test API requests and evaluate their responses.

WorldCat API and Facebook

Mobile web apps

WorldCat API and the iPhone

Android App: CompareEverywhere When a book bar code is scanned a match selected, CompareEverywhere looks for it at local stores, libraries, and online stores. Nearby libraries are found by sending the users location and an identifier for the item to the WorldCat API.

CSU Library Search

The Programmable WorldCat Combine Search API results in novel ways with other OCLC Web Services, including Identities, xISBN, Registry services, etc. Embed within other platforms, e.g., Facebook, WordPress, etc. Mashup with data from other sources and other web services, for example Google Maps, Yahoo News, Local Catalog web services, reading lists, etc.
