OUR Archive OAI-PMH Metadata

OUR Archive (Otago University Research Archive) is the University of Otago institutional research repository, now hosted on Ex Libris / Clarivate Esploro. It exposes an OAI-PMH (Open Archives Initiative Protocol for Metadata Harvesting) endpoint following the standard Esploro pattern at /view/oai/64OTAGO_INST/request. The endpoint resolves and returns valid OAI XML, but at the time of review it returned OAI error_code 21 ("Unauthorized access to the OAI services"), indicating public harvesting is not currently enabled. Listed as the repository's standards-based metadata interface; confirm authorization with the library before relying on it.
