OAI-PMH Service
The OAI-PMH service is available
Six verbs
The OAI-PMH service exposes metadata stored in the Chemotion Repository using the Open Archives Initiative Protocol for Metadata Harvesting (OAI-PMH).
This service is open to the public. The Chemotion Repository processes OAI-PMH requests and exposes metadata so that records can be harvested.
Six verbs are defined in the OAI-PMH specification and used for the discovery and sharing of metadata.
The six OAI-PMH verbs are:
- Identify
- ListIdentifiers
- ListRecords
- GetRecords
- ListSets
- ListMetadataFormat
There are a number of parameters that can be used by harvesters to restrict harvest requests to certain portions of the metadata, they are:
- identifier
- metadataPrefix
- set
- from
- until
- resumptionToken
The Chemotion Repository OAI-PMH service is able to provide metadata in the following formats:
- OAI Dublin Core (oai_dc)
- OAI DataCite (oai_datacite)
Please visit the Open Archives Initiative for more details.
