ANU Open Research OAI-PMH is one of 6 APIs that [Australian National University](https://apis.io/providers/anu/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network, described by a machine-readable OpenAPI specification. Tagged areas include OAI-PMH, Institutional Repository, Open Access, Research, and DSpace. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation and an OpenAPI specification.

OAI-PMH 2.0 metadata harvesting interface for ANU's Open Research institutional repository. Confirmed live: repositoryName "Open Research", repositoryIdentifier openresearch-repository.anu.edu.au, earliest datestamp 2004-01-01, twelve metadata formats (oai_dc, qdc, mods, mets, didl, ore, rdf, marc, xoai, dim, etdms, uketd_dc). Records carry ORCID identifiers and DOIs under ANU's own DataCite prefix 10.25911. The repository software is open-source DSpace 7.6.7, but ANU self-hosts the instance on ANU infrastructure and the protocol is an open community standard — this is not a SaaS tenancy, and no other institution's records are served here.
