UKM e-Journal System (OAI-PMH) is one of 9 APIs that [Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia](https://apis.io/providers/ukm/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network, described by a machine-readable OpenAPI specification. Tagged areas include OAI-PMH, Scholarly Publishing, Open Journal Systems, Open Access, and Research. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes an OpenAPI specification and API documentation.

Open Journal Systems 2.4.8.1 platform self-hosted at ejournal.ukm.my (CNAME ejournals.ukm.my), carrying the journals published by UKM faculties, institutes and UKM Press. Its OAI-PMH 2.0 interface is live and unauthenticated: repositoryName "UKM e-Journal System", adminEmail nurhafizah@ukm.edu.my, repositoryIdentifier ojs.ukm.my, earliestDatestamp 2012-02-19, deletedRecord policy persistent, gzip and deflate compression advertised, five metadata formats (oai_dc, oai_marc, marcxml, nlm, rfc1807) and 100 sets. This surface was not in UKM's profile before 2026-09-01. It is the publishing counterpart of the university's Crossref membership — UKM Press mints 10.17576 DOIs against the articles it exposes. OJS 2.4.8.1 predates the PKP REST API, so OAI-PMH is the only machine-readable interface it offers; /api/v1/contexts returns 404.
