ELUNA Document RepositoryAlma Developers PlatformMosheShechterauthorAbstract: Today’s libraries are managing increasingly complex workflows, offering dramatically enhanced services—both in quantity and quality—to users and researchers, and using large numbers of systems and databases to provide these services. Accordingly, simple and easy-to-implement integrations are becoming a key component in the library’s success in meeting its internal goals, as well critical for its contribution to the organization’s mission. Alma Developers makes extending Alma easy and fast. This new platform enables Alma to seamlessly integrate with any system that interacts with library workflows, making extending library workflows and services a snap, and enabling smooth interaction with other organizational systems. As a result, the library becomes integrated with important institutional processes. In this session we will describe the Alma Developers platform. We will detail Alma’s existing and planned API extensions, present options for internal extensions in Alma, and wrap up after becoming well acquainted with the Alma tools that make this happen, including some of our roadmap plans in this area.Ex Libris Presentations2013-05-01Conference or Workshop Item
