What was checked & what still needs confirmation

NYPL's www pages sit behind Imperva (curl gets a JS stub). Event data read from NYPL's own public Drupal JSON:API (drupal.nypl.org/jsonapi/node/event), the record that renders this page; times converted from UTC to America/New_York; branch address from the linked library node. NYPL describes its calendar programs as free. Cross-check: the Noon Years Eve page was read via Cloudflare Browser Run and matched the API. Two NYPL listings: Oct 17/24 series and Nov 7.
