Waikato Library Discovery on Ex Libris Primo VE (tenant) is one of 14 APIs that [University of Waikato](https://apis.io/providers/university-of-waikato/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network. Tagged areas include Library, Discovery, Ex Libris, Primo, and Tenant. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation.

The University of Waikato Library's discovery layer is a named tenancy on Ex Libris's shared Primo VE platform — waikato.primo.exlibrisgroup.com with view code vid=64WAIKATO_INST:64WAIKATO, verified live 2026-09-01, HTTP 200. The collection, the holdings and the institution view are the university's; the Primo and Alma API contracts are Ex Libris's and belong in Ex Libris's own repository, not here. Recorded as a relationship so the institution gets credit for operating a library discovery surface without being credited for Ex Libris's engineering.
