AUB ScholarWorks OAI-PMH

OAI-PMH 2.0 metadata harvesting endpoint for AUB ScholarWorks. Identify returns repositoryName "AUB ScholarWorks", repositoryIdentifier scholarworks.aub.edu.lb, adminEmail scholarworks@aub.edu.lb, earliestDatestamp 2012-06-11T12:20:20Z, granularity YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssZ and deletedRecord transient. Thirteen metadata formats are served — oai_dc, qdc, dim, xoai, mods, mets, didl, ore, rdf, marc, rioxx, uketd_dc and etdms — which is an aggregator-oriented configuration rather than a bare DSpace default. ListSets exposes AUB's own communities (AUB Press, the Archaeological Museum, AUBotanic, the Asfari Institute and others) as harvestable sets. This is the single most useful anonymous machine-readable surface AUB operates.
