Whodunit
After the success of my Ready Player One project the library decided that we should do a spiritual successor. I thought about different ideas, but settled on a mystery. Like RPO this would have both a digital and a physical component. I liked the idea of not going to far away from the things that…

New York Times API (PHP)
The Mount Prospect Public Library wanted to have the New York Times Bestsellers list on their website. So I decided to create a program that would do that for them. The program works by fetching JSON data from the NYT API, comparing it against the libraries catalog to make sure they own a copy, then…
