# Colenda Digital Repository — Search JSON

**Canonical:** https://apis.io/apis/university-of-pennsylvania/colenda/  
**Provider:** University of Pennsylvania — https://apis.io/providers/university-of-pennsylvania/  
**Base URL:** https://colenda.library.upenn.edu  
**Documentation:** https://colenda.library.upenn.edu/

Colenda Digital Repository — Search JSON is one of 10 APIs that [University of Pennsylvania](https://apis.io/providers/university-of-pennsylvania/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network. Tagged areas include Library, Digital Collections, Research Repository, and Open Data. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation.

Penn Libraries' digital repository at colenda.library.upenn.edu exposes a Blacklight/Solr JSON search response (/catalog.json returned HTTP 200, ~59 KB, anonymous). Institution-operated on Penn's own host. No IIIF Presentation manifest was reachable at the paths probed (/iiif and /iiif/2/manifest both 404), so IIIF is NOT claimed here. No OpenAPI derived: the response is a raw Solr envelope rather than a designed contract.
