LibraryThing for Libraries: XML format
The LibraryThing for Libraries "widgets" are designed to have three outputs, only one of which is really a widget:- As JavaScript, adding HTML to your OPAC
- As a link to a web page, for for screen readers without JavaScript
- As XML
The XML we're going to be delivering will be simplicity itself. Provide a ISBN and the "widgets" you want and get back items with ISBNs, titles, authors and your catalog URL. Here's an example for "similar books" (ie., recommendations) and "related editons." (http://www.librarything.com/demo_nypl.xml)

This is actually a comment on the Logo post after this but I can't see any way to post a comment there.
The font may be a cheap one but it has an expensive twin in Pabst Old Style - I think that the squeezed letter-forms are down to Tim though.
Whoops. Somehow I turned the default off. Sorry.
We are an academic library with dedicated library-services programmers.
When can we do a test? ;)
