  description: 'OAI-PMH metadata harvesting endpoint documented for UT Research Information, the University of Twente''s Pure-based
    research information system at research.utwente.nl. It is intended to expose research output, profiles, projects and dataset
    metadata for harvesting by discovery and aggregation services. Note: at time of review the public web front-end did not
    serve a working OAI-PMH response (returned an error/500), so access appears restricted or relocated. Listed here on documented
    evidence only; no live endpoint was confirmed.'
