TOBIAS-lib / Publikationssystem UB Tübingen OAI-PMH

OAI-PMH 2.0 provider for the University Library's institutional publication server (TOBIAS-lib), running DSpace on the library's own host publikationen.uni-tuebingen.de (ub01.uni-tuebingen.de, 134.2.5.97). Verified live 2026-09-01 — verb=Identify returns 200 text/xml with repositoryName "Publikationssystem UB Tuebingen", adminEmail edl-admin@ub.uni-tuebingen.de, repositoryIdentifier publikationen.uni-tuebingen.de, sampleIdentifier oai:publikationen.uni-tuebingen.de:10900/64291, earliestDatestamp 1998-12-16T23:00:00Z and deletedRecord "transient" — twenty-five years of theses, dissertations and open-access publications. verb=ListMetadataFormats returns didl, mods, ore and xMetaDissPlus (the German national dissertation delivery profile for the DNB) among others; a second base URL /oai/driver?verb=Identify also answers 200. This endpoint was missing from the June 2026 profile entirely. The DSpace REST API on the same host is not exposed (/rest/status 403, /server/api 404), so only the OAI-PMH interface is catalogued. The DSpace contract is the product's and is not saved here.
