At the presentation I was asked to guide a workshop on using the CUNY catalog APIs. Now I’m trying to come up with a small project as an example, but I am not sure what people might be interested in, so I am asking here:
If you’re interested in attending a workshop on this subject, which language would you prefer I focus on?
Python: would be a small script that automates some collection development task, like creating an excel chart showing the catalog status of a list of books.
Javascript: a web app that would combine catalog data with external info, for instance from Worldcat.
In either case those who attend would need to have their development environment set up beforehand. Python has more work to its initial setup.
