Abstract: While many languages are used for data manipulation, it is unusual to see JavaScript put to this task. This paper describes a novel application built to manipulate catalog patron data using only JavaScript running in a browser. Further, it describes the approach of building and deploying "strongly single page web applications," a more extreme version of single page applications that have been condensed into a single HTML file. The paper discusses the application itself, how it is used, and the way that possessing web development and coding skills in an organization's systems department can help it flexibly respond to challenges using such novel solutions.
