OAI-PMH Harvesting API

Standards-based bulk harvesting endpoint implementing the Open Archives Initiative Protocol for Metadata Harvesting (OAI-PMH 2.0). Supports ListRecords, GetRecord, ListMetadataFormats, ListSets, and ListIdentifiers verbs across the Dublin Core (dc), Europeana Data Model (edm_dc), and LIDO metadata formats. Use this — not the Collection Search API — to mirror more than 600,000 object records beyond the 10,000-object search ceiling.
