UC San Diego DOI registration (DataCite / California Digital Library) is one of 12 APIs that [University of California, San Diego](https://apis.io/providers/ucsd/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network. Tagged areas include DOI, DataCite, Research Data, Persistent Identifiers, and Standards. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation.

UC San Diego Library mints DOIs for its Digital Collections under DataCite repository account CDL.UCSD ("UC San Diego", registered 2012), prefix 10.6075. 22,934 DOIs resolve to library.ucsd.edu/dc landing pages. TENANT: the DOIs, the metadata and the landing pages are UC San Diego's, but the registration API is DataCite's and the membership is held through the California Digital Library, so the contract is not the institution's and is not saved here. Recorded because it is a real institutional fact and satisfies the education regime's `datacite` domain standard.
