API entry from apis.yml

apis.yml Raw ↑
aid: uq:library-discovery
name: UQ Library discovery (Ex Libris Primo VE tenancy)
x-operator: tenant
x-operator-evidence: search.library.uq.edu.au is UQ's own hostname but redirects to /discovery/search?vid=61UQ_INST:61UQ,
  the Ex Libris Primo VE tenant view code. Ex Libris runs the platform and wrote the contract; UQ supplies
  the collection and the branding. Host-based attribution would wrongly read this as institution-operated,
  which is exactly the failure this profile guards against.
