Purdue e-Pubs OAI-PMH (bepress Digital Commons tenant) is one of 7 APIs that [Purdue University](https://apis.io/providers/purdue/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network. Tagged areas include Research Repository, OAI-PMH, Institutional Repository, Tenant, and bepress Digital Commons.

Purdue e-Pubs is the university's institutional repository for scholarly output, reachable at docs.lib.purdue.edu with a working OAI-PMH 2.0 endpoint. The content, the collections and the scholarship are Purdue's; the platform is not. docs.lib.purdue.edu is a CNAME to dlpurdue.bepress.com and the Identify response names dc-support@elsevier.com as the repository administrator, so this is a bepress Digital Commons tenancy under a Purdue hostname. Recorded as a relationship. No bepress contract is stored under this institution - that contract belongs in bepress's own profile, not Purdue's.
