Yonsei University

aid: yonsei
name: Yonsei University
description: 'Yonsei University is a private research university in Seoul, South Korea, founded in 1885 and ranked #73 in
  the QS World University Rankings 2025. Its public, machine-readable footprint is limited and primarily research- and library-oriented:
  the Yonsei Research Information portal runs on Elsevier Pure (which exposes Pure OAI-PMH and REST endpoints, but they require
  credentials/IP allow-listing and return HTTP 401 publicly), and the medical library operates a DSpace 5.5 institutional
  repository (YUHSpace) whose RSS feed is publicly reachable while its OAI-PMH/REST paths are not currently resolvable. No
  official, documented public developer portal or open API was confirmed; the only related GitHub presence is a student-run
  Google Developer Group (gdg-yonsei), not an official institutional API organization.'

  name: Yonsei Research Information Portal (Elsevier Pure)
  description: Yonsei University's research information system is built on Elsevier Pure, publishing organizations, researcher
    profiles, projects, and research outputs. Pure platforms typically expose an OAI-PMH endpoint (/ws/oai) and a REST API
    (/ws/api), but on this instance both return HTTP 401 and are not publicly accessible without credentials or IP allow-listing.
