Queen's University Belfast Pure API deployment (Elsevier Pure tenancy) is one of 5 APIs that [Queen's University Belfast](https://apis.io/providers/queens-university-belfast/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network. Tagged areas include Research Information, CRIS, Pure, and Research Repository. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation.

The QUB tenancy of the Elsevier Pure Web Service API. The deployment is real and callable at https://pureadmin.qub.ac.uk/ws/api — an unauthenticated request returns HTTP 401 "Full authentication is required to access this resource" — and the tenancy currently runs Pure 5.36.2-1. The contract, however, is Elsevier's: the OpenAPI the host serves is titled "Pure API" with contact pure-support@elsevier.com. No copy of that spec is kept in this repository; the relationship is recorded here and the contract belongs against Elsevier Pure's own profile.
