Description Christopher Brannon 2025-01-10 18:13:07 UTC
Koha news needs API readability (GET) so that discovery systems like Aspen can eventually display the same type of information we might choose to display on Koha's public OPAC via news.
Comment 1 David Cook 2025-01-14 23:03:09 UTC
You could make the argument that Koha could consume those same APIs to render the content as well. 

Personally, I love the idea of an API-driven OPAC, so that any authorized system could act as a Koha front-end.
