APIs allow programs to access and use data from other programs or services. Mashups combine data from multiple sources into a single application. The Semantic Web aims to make web content machine-readable so that software agents can process and understand it, enabling applications like automatically scheduling a patient's medical appointments based on preferences. Librarians should advocate for vendor APIs, create useful mashups, and prepare to contribute to the Semantic Web as standards mature.
