Elsevier Pure Research Information System (tenant) is one of 14 APIs that [University of Reading](https://apis.io/providers/university-of-reading/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network. Tagged areas include CRIS, Research Information, Elsevier Pure, Tenant, and Gated. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation.

The University of Reading runs an Elsevier Pure instance at reading.elsevierpure.com, with a staging sibling at reading-staging.elsevierpure.com. Both returned 401 on 2026-09-01 — the tenancy is real but not publicly readable. Independently corroborated by DataCite, whose repository client pclw.bnuteb under the university's provider record is named "Pure" with URL reading-staging.elsevierpure.com. Recorded as a relationship only: the research information in it is Reading's, the API contract is Elsevier's, and no Pure specification is saved in this repository. This is the misattribution the university pipeline exists to prevent.
