TAU Libraries Primo Discovery (DaTA Search) is one of 3 APIs that [Tel Aviv University](https://apis.io/providers/tel-aviv-university/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network. Tagged areas include Library, Discovery, Primo, Ex Libris, and Catalog. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation.

Tel Aviv University Libraries run ExLibris Primo for catalog/discovery (branded "DaTA Search"), institution code 972TAU_INST:TAU. The hosted Primo platform exposes the standard Primo Search REST API. Programmatic access requires ExLibris API keys provisioned through the institution; there is no TAU-specific public developer portal.
