Software Contest


OCLC Research Sponsors Software Contest to Encourage Innovation. OCLC Research announced a contest intended to give developers an outlet for creative software development of library services.

The contest is intended to encourage innovation and development of Web-based services for libraries and library users. Contestants will be challenged to think differently about their environments by working with deconstructed functional components of library services. The prize is $2,500.00 US.

It will be nice to see someone get something back from their idea and hard work other than the thanks and gratitude of the profession.
