name: Queen's University at Kingston
description: 'Queen''s University at Kingston is a public research university in Kingston, Ontario, Canada, serving more than
  25,000 students and ranked #193 in the QS World University Rankings 2025. Its public developer footprint centers on Qmulus,
  a community open-data API exposing Queen''s datasets (courses, buildings, textbooks and more), alongside library and research-data
  infrastructure: the QSpace institutional repository (DSpace, with REST and OAI-PMH interfaces) and the Queen''s University
  Dataverse hosted on the Canadian Borealis repository (Dataverse native REST plus OAI-PMH). Most of these surfaces are open
  or community-run rather than a single official university developer portal.'
