DAPI Diem is an exploratory tool developed during OCLC's Developer House event in December 2014 that attempts to highlight library holdings relevant for a given day. The tool queries the linked data source DBpedia using SPARQL to discover entities with a relationship to the day, ranks the entities using information about the entities' Wikipedia articles, and retrieves library holdings using the WorldCat Discovery API. Presented as part of "Linked Data-Driven Discovery: Applications and APIs from a User-Centered Perspective" at LITA Forum, November 13, 2015, Minneapolis, MN.
