Handle.Net naming authority 10576 is one of 10 APIs that [Qatar University](https://apis.io/providers/qatar/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network. Tagged areas include Identifier Registry, Handle System, and Persistent Identifiers.

Qatar University holds Handle.Net prefix 10576 and every QSpace item carries a persistent identifier under it, resolving through hdl.handle.net to the repository. The prefix registration is Qatar University's regardless of who hosts the repository it points at, which is why it is recorded separately from the QSpace tenancy.
