Summary

This ORI project will develop a standalone middleware tool for identifying academic organisations and associated repositories. This project will improve the ORI functionality developed for the Open Access Repository Junction (OA-RJ) and OpenDepot.org by EDINA and establish it as an independent middleware component made openly available for any third party application to use. ORI will be made available as a micro-service through UK RepositoryNet+.

Project Deliverables

A standalone middleware tool that:

• Holds identification information about organisations and repositories worldwide
• Harvests data from several authoritative sources on organisations and repositories
• Can be queried through APIs and Linked Data
• The ORI documentation and APIs are available at http://ori.edina.ac.uk/
