AMS Acta Institutional Repository OAI-PMH

OAI-PMH 2.0 metadata-harvesting provider for AMS Acta, the AlmaDL institutional research repository, self-hosted on the university's own infrastructure. Verified live 2026-09-01 — verb=Identify returns 200 text/xml with repositoryName "AMS Acta - AlmaDL Università di Bologna", baseURL https://amsacta.unibo.it/cgi/oai2, protocolVersion 2.0, adminEmail eprints@cib.unibo.it, earliestDatestamp 2011-05-16T11:20:59Z, granularity YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssZ. verb=ListMetadataFormats returns ten prefixes — almadl, almadl_solr, didl, mets, oai_bibl, oai_datacite, oai_dc, openaire_oai_dc, rdf, uketd_dc — which is a wider format set than most institutional repositories expose and includes both the DataCite and the OpenAIRE profiles. verb=ListRecords&metadataPrefix=oai_datacite returns real records carrying DOIs under the university's own 10.6092 prefix, e.g. 10.6092/unibo/amsacta/14. The host is the institution's: amsacta.unibo.it resolves through frontend-http-01.unibo.it to 137.204.24.86. The repository software is EPrints, so no product spec is saved here; the endpoint, the host and the scholarship are the university's.
