# Omni library discovery — Ex Libris Primo VE (tenant)

**Canonical:** https://apis.io/apis/western/omni-primo/

Omni library discovery — Ex Libris Primo VE (tenant) is one of 6 APIs that [Western University](https://apis.io/providers/western/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network. Tagged areas include Library, Discovery, Primo, Ex Libris, and Catalog. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation.

Western Libraries' discovery layer is Omni, the Ontario Council of University Libraries' shared Ex Libris Alma/Primo VE deployment. Western's view is ocul-uwo.primo.exlibrisgroup.com with vid=01OCUL_UWO:UWO_DEFAULT. Recorded so the relationship is visible, but no contract is saved: the Primo and Alma APIs are Ex Libris products documented on developers.exlibrisgroup.com, shared by every Alma customer, and crediting them to Western would be the exact misattribution this profile guards against.
