</div>
<div>For people who are not familiar with APIs, could you provide a quick overview into what they are - specifically in relation to websites displaying course and people data?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks again! Your team has done impressive work!</div>

<div>Hi everyone,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>My name is Iana and I am the product owner of the APIs initiative in IS&T. Lizz McManus Hemrajani referred me to your mailing list, since the APIs that our team is building might be useful to members of this group. Currently we have a People API which
provides basic directory information about people at MIT, a Subjects API which provides course catalog information and this Friday we will be releasing a Courses API, which provides information on graduate and undergraduate courses of study. You can find
more information on these APIs on our developer connection portal: <a href="https://developers.mit.edu/api" target="_blank">https://developers.mit.edu/api</a> . </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>If anyone on this mailing list has additional data needs that our team could expose through APIs we would love to hear about them.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks,</div>
