Autonomous University of Barcelona

name: Autonomous University of Barcelona
description: 'The Autonomous University of Barcelona (Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, UAB) is a public research university
  in Bellaterra, near Barcelona, Spain, founded in 1968 and ranked #175 in the QS World University Rankings 2025. UAB''s public,
  machine-accessible footprint centers on its open scholarly infrastructure rather than a formal developer portal: the Dipòsit
  Digital de Documents (DDD), the institutional repository built on the Invenio platform, exposes an OAI-PMH 2.0 metadata
  endpoint and is OpenAIRE-compliant. Research data is published through the Catalan consortium (CSUC) federated research
  data repository. No dedicated, publicly documented UAB developer/API program or official institutional GitHub organization
  was confirmed; student-facing academic services (SIA) are gated login portals without public API documentation.'

  description: OAI-PMH 2.0 metadata harvesting endpoint for the Dipòsit Digital de Documents de la UAB (DDD), the university's
    institutional repository of theses, articles, preprints, postprints, ebooks, periodicals, and other scholarly and institutional
    output. The repository runs on the Invenio platform (originally from CERN) and is certified OpenAIRE-compliant. The endpoint
    supports standard OAI-PMH verbs (Identify, ListRecords, ListSets, GetRecord) and is harvested by aggregators such as Google
    Scholar, BASE, and CORE.

    research data repository (CORA Repositori de Dades de Recerca), where Catalan universities and CERCA research centers
    publish FAIR research data sets following EOSC guidelines. This is a shared/federated consortium platform rather than
    a UAB-only API; no UAB-specific public API documentation was confirmed.
