UNC Dataverse OAI-PMH Archive

OAI-PMH 2.0 harvesting endpoint for the UNC Dataverse research data repository, operated by the Odum Institute / Institute for Research in Social Science. Identify reports repositoryName "UNC Dataverse Dataverse OAI Archive", protocolVersion 2.0, granularity YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssZ, earliestDatestamp 2016-11-09, and gzip/deflate compression. ListMetadataFormats advertises oai_dc, oai_ddi, dataverse_json and both `Datacite` and `oai_datacite`. Keyless, live and verified on 2026-08-30. Recorded separately from the Dataverse native REST API because OAI-PMH is an open standard rather than a product contract: the interface is the community's, the archive and the metadata are UNC's.
