UC Berkeley Digital Collections OAI-PMH (TIND tenant)

Berkeley's Digital Collections repository exposes a live OAI-PMH 2.0 interface, confirmed with an actual verb=Identify response reporting repositoryName "Digital Collections", repositoryIdentifier digicoll.lib.berkeley.edu and adminEmail digicoll@berkeley.edu, with named collection sets available via ListSets. The metadata, the collections and the administrative contact are Berkeley's; the software and the protocol implementation are not. digicoll.lib.berkeley.edu CNAMEs to berkeley.lb.service.tind.io, making this a Berkeley-specific tenancy on TIND's platform. Recorded as a tenant relationship: the repository is a real institutional fact and one of Berkeley's few programmable surfaces, but the contract belongs to TIND and is not saved under this institution.
