eScholarship Repository and OAI-PMH (California Digital Library tenant) is one of 8 APIs that [University of California, Berkeley](https://apis.io/providers/ucb/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network. Tagged areas include Research Repository, Open Access, OAI-PMH, and Scholarly Communication. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation.

eScholarship is the University of California's open-access publishing platform and institutional repository, operated system-wide by the California Digital Library, not by the Berkeley campus. Its OAI-PMH interface is live and was confirmed with verb=Identify (repositoryIdentifier escholarship.org, adminEmail help@escholarship.org). ListSets returns a single set, "everything" -- there is no Berkeley-scoped OAI set, which is precisely why this cannot be attributed to Berkeley as its own contract. Berkeley scholarship is deposited into it and surfaced under the unit path /uc/ucb. Recorded as a tenant relationship on a sibling UC service.
