White Rose Research Online OAI-PMH

White Rose Research Online is the shared open-access outputs repository of the Universities of Leeds, Sheffield and York, running on EPrints and administered by the White Rose consortium rather than by Sheffield alone. Its OAI-PMH 2.0 interface Identifies as "White Rose Research Online" and offers thirteen metadata formats including oai_dc, rioxx, oai_openaire, uketd_dc and oai_dc_orcid — the last of which is where this profile's ORCID conformance evidence comes from. Sheffield co-owns the deployment; EPrints wrote the protocol implementation.
