Project MUSE OAI-PMH Repository is one of 8 APIs that [Johns Hopkins University](https://apis.io/providers/johns-hopkins-university/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network. Tagged areas include OAI-PMH, Scholarly Publishing, Metadata Harvesting, and Open Access. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation.

Project MUSE, operated by Johns Hopkins University Press, exposes an OAI-PMH 2.0 harvesting endpoint that answers Identify, ListMetadataFormats, ListSets and ListRecords with no authentication at all — 897,938 records across 971 sets in oai_dc, earliest datestamp 2016-08-31. It is the only fully open machine-readable surface Johns Hopkins operates, and the strongest single piece of education-regime domain standard evidence in this profile.
