Harvesting Institutional Repositories via EDS


Institutional Repositories (IRs) can be directly loaded into EDS
so that they can be fully searched alongside all other EDS resources/content.

Loading Institutional Repositories

The standard format for institutional repositories is OAI-PMH (EBSCO is also able to work with non-standard formats as required). Since each repository is different and may present unique aspects, each institutional repository is analyzed for optimized loading and display.

Supported data formats include:

  • MARC
  • CSV
  • DC/OAI-PMH
  • XML
  • Other formats if required
