Université de Montréal

aid: universite-de-montreal
name: Université de Montréal
description: 'Université de Montréal (UdeM) is a leading French-language public research university in Montréal, Québec, Canada,
  ranked #95 in the QS World University Rankings 2025. Its public, machine-readable developer footprint is modest and research/library
  oriented rather than a centralized developer portal: the SADVR REST API (Service d''accès aux données de la Vitrine-Recherche)
  exposes research expertise and unit data, the Papyrus institutional repository offers a live OAI-PMH metadata endpoint,
  and UdeM participates in the Borealis Canadian Dataverse for research data. There is no single unified, branded developer
  portal; integration surfaces are distributed across library and research infrastructure.'

  description: 'REST API from the Service d''accès aux données de la Vitrine-Recherche, redistributing UdeM research data.
    Provides five JSON services: resource value exposure (faculties, departments, functions, programs, study domains, research
    expertise, languages, unit types), persistent identifier search for individuals and research units, extended identifier
    search, full data retrieval by persistent identifier, and a SOLR-backed search engine service. The documented base path
    is a testing/legacy endpoint and may not currently resolve.'
