Drive Thru Data: Using NLM APIs to Access Information Fast<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

The National Library of Medicine (NLM) provides millions of people access to health information via its portfolio of products and services. But some people may need to access NLM\u2019s resources in special ways, to help support new and innovative projects. Application programming interfaces (APIs) can help you access NLM\u2019s data more quickly and efficiently, especially when integrated into a program or script.<\/p>\n

This webinar is aimed at librarians and other information professionals who are familiar with NLM\u2019s products and services but want to explore NLM data in new ways. Students with all levels of technical expertise are welcome, regardless of whether you\u2019ve never heard of APIs before, you\u2019re a new API user who needs a little help, or are an API expert looking for more information about NLM\u2019s API offerings. As long as you\u2019re interested in finding new and improved ways of interacting with NLM\u2019s resources, this webinar is for you!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
