<p class="MsoNoSpacing">If you had tools to improve your work, why wouldn’t you use them? We play with new tools on our smart phones, but don’t carry that habit over to technical services work. Often we don’t understand what we are using at work, what we could
build or have built for us, are unaware of what is available, and/or blindly accept methods, not even realizing the potential that these tools have. The program will feature a unique format with brief overviews on a variety of tools by multiple speakers, followed
by a panel discussion with the speakers on using the tools. Macros, APIs, OAI harvesting with CONTENTdm and WorldShare will all be discussed.<o:p></o:p></p>

to interact with the service. Others allow for these various services to interact between themselves to share data or functionality to allow for a convenient staff or patron experience. Many vendors provide these APIs. What do we do with them?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
