Washington University in St. Louis

Washington University in St. Louis (WashU) is a private research university in St. Louis, Missouri, ranked #171 in the QS World University Rankings 2025.

The Becker Medical Library School of Medicine runs a Digital Commons Data (Elsevier/Mendeley Data) research repository that exposes an OAI-PMH endpoint and API docs. Most other surfaces (course catalog, registrar) are web applications rather than documented public APIs.
