ELUNA updates

ELUNA Attendees
  • Elizabeth Altman (Dev-Day-2016-EAltman.pptx)
  • Dave Walker
    • presentation on projects using APIs, including authentication / authorization, data cleanup post-migration, using Alma as a room / study carrel reservation system, basic Reading List apps, etc.
    • potential problems with using the APIs, when creating a key use a separate key for each application. If you ever wanted to troubleshoot problems on the Ex Libris side, they can do that by looking at the key; so if you're making calls from multiple apps there might be issues.
  • Others!
