DR-NTU (Digital Repository) — DSpace-CRIS REST API

NTU's institutional publications and research-profile repository — 158,100 research profiles, records back to 2008 — served from NTU's own hostname but operated on 4Science's DSpace-CRIS platform. Recorded here as a tenant relationship because the repository, the data and the library administration are NTU's while the platform and the REST contract are the vendor's. No OpenAPI is registered under NTU for this surface: the DSpace 7 contract belongs in the platform's own catalog entry, not in NTU's.
