Reading Trends API

healthy 4,526 Subscribers

A live read on what the Open Library reading community is into right now, as an API. Pull the trending books over the last day, week, month or year — with author, first-published year and edition count — or open a book for its social reading stats: the average star rating and number of ratings, and how many people have it on their "want to read", "currently reading" and "already read" shelves. The pulse of community reading delivered as clean JSON for book, social and dashboard apps. Live data, no key. Distinct from book-catalogue search/ISBN APIs — this is the reading-popularity and shelf-engagement layer.

Book Reader Stats API

Live reader-community stats for books from Open Library (the Internet Archive's open book catalog) — no key, nothing stored. This is the reading-community view of a book: how readers rate it and how many want to read, are reading or have already read it, distinct from the plain book-catalog and reading-trends APIs in the catalogue — this is the community-engagement layer, not the bibliographic record. The book endpoint returns a title's reader stats: the average rating, the full 1-5 star distribution, and the reading-log counts (want-to-read, currently-reading, already-read), with its authors, first-published year and subjects. The search endpoint searches books and returns each match with its rating and want-to-read count, so you can find a work and its Open Library id. The author endpoint returns an author's profile — work count, top work and dates. Build reading dashboards, book-recommendation widgets, "most wanted" charts and community-sentiment tools on top of real Open Library data. Look up a book by its Open Library work id (work=OL27448W) or by title (title=the hobbit); reading-log counts come from the community's bookshelves.

Wattpad API

Live data from Wattpad, the world's largest storytelling social platform where writers publish serialized fiction and millions of readers follow, vote and comment, served straight from Wattpad's public API — no key, nothing cached. The search endpoint finds stories by keyword, each with its read, vote and comment counts, part count, completion and maturity flags, tags and author — a popular dragon-romance pulls hundreds of thousands of reads. The story endpoint returns one story in full: its description, cover, the engagement counts, the number of parts, language, tags and the author with their follower count. The user endpoint returns a writer's profile: their follower and following counts, the number of stories they have published, their bio and location — Wattpad's own account has tens of millions of followers. The user-stories endpoint returns a writer's published stories with each one's stats. Everything is live from Wattpad, nothing stored. This is the web-fiction social layer for any reading, discovery, writing-community or recommendation app. Distinct from mainstream social and the book-catalog APIs — this is Wattpad's stories, their engagement and their authors. 4 endpoints, no key on our side.

Internet Archive API

The Internet Archive as an API — the non-profit digital library of over 40 million freely accessible items: books and texts, audio and live-music concerts, films and video, software, images and archived web pages. Search the entire archive by keyword with full Lucene field syntax (by creator, title, subject, collection and more), filter by media type (texts, audio, movies, image, software, web, live concerts) and sort by downloads, date or trending popularity, getting each item's identifier, title, creator, media type, year, download count and collections; read an item's full metadata including its description, creators, subjects, language, collections, publisher, license, dates and total size; list an item's downloadable files with their format, size, length and a direct download URL; and look up the closest Wayback Machine snapshot of any web page — the archived flag, the snapshot date and HTTP status, and the web.archive.org link, optionally near a target timestamp. Ideal for research, digital preservation, media discovery, dataset building, link-rot recovery and apps that surface public-domain and openly-licensed culture. Data from the Internet Archive (archive.org).

Harry Potter API

The Wizarding World of Harry Potter as an API, powered by the open PotterDB. Search hundreds of characters by name and Hogwarts house (e.g. Harry Potter → Gryffindor, Stag patronus, half-blood, with species, wand, family and titles), browse the spell book (incantations, effects, light colour and casting hand — e.g. the Patronus Charm "Expecto Patronum"), the seven novels (author, pages, release date, dedication and summary), and the potions (ingredients, effect, difficulty and side-effects — e.g. Polyjuice Potion). Filter and paginate, or fetch any item by its slug. Ideal for fan sites, trivia and quiz games, Sorting-Hat and house apps, Discord bots and any Harry Potter project.
