WHAT’S COPE?

Besides the best acronym ever?


What’s COPE?

“Over the last year, NPR's total page view growth has increased by more than 80%. How did we get that much growth? Our API. The NPR API went live to the public in July 2008”1

“Through COPE, our systems have enabled incredible growth despite having a small staff and limited resources… any system that adheres to these principles… will see the benefits of content modularity and portability.”(emphasis added)

despite having a small staff and limited resources. Any

system that adheres to these principles… will see the

benefits of content modularity and portability.

— Daniel Jacobson, Director of App Development

NPR delivers to 800+ different output platforms


What’s COPE?

“COPE is really a combination of several other closely related sub-philosophies, including:

• Build content management systems (CMS), not web publishing tools (WPT)

• Separate content from display

• Ensure content modularity

• Ensure content portability”

— Daniel Jacobson, Director of App Development

can deliver contextually-

“pages” can be built up

from some or all of the

structured source.
