openapi: 3.2.0 info: title: University of Melbourne — Minerva Access Repository REST Core API version: DSpace 7.6 description: 'Read surface of Minerva Access, the University of Melbourne Library''s institutional repository. The deployment is DSpace 7.6, self-hosted on the University''s own infrastructure — the service advertises itself as `https://rest.mars-prod.its.unimelb.edu.au/server` (its.unimelb.edu.au = University of Melbourne Information Technology Services) and the OAI-PMH Identify response names `jupiter.its.unimelb.edu.au` as the repository identifier with `repository-admin@unimelb.edu.au` as admin contact. OPERATOR NOTE. DSpace is open-source software (LYRASIS), not a hosted vendor platform, and this instance runs on University hardware under a University hostname, so the operator is the institution. That is a different finding from `melbourne.figshare.com`, which is a Figshare tenancy and is recorded in apis.yml as `x-operator: tenant` with no contract saved here. This document was DERIVED from live probes on 2026-08-19. The University does not publish an OpenAPI description of this API. Only endpoints that returned HTTP 200 on that date are described here; DSpace 7.6 exposes roughly 60 further HAL link relations from its root document, which are listed in `lifecycle/` rather than invented into paths.' contact: name: Minerva Access repository administration email: repository-admin@unimelb.edu.au url: https://minerva-access.unimelb.edu.au/ x-operator: institution x-software: DSpace 7.6 (LYRASIS, BSD) x-provenance: generated: '2026-08-19' method: derived source: Live probes of https://minerva-access.unimelb.edu.au/server/api , /server/api/core/communities?size=2 and /server/api/core/communities/00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000 on 2026-08-19. servers: - url: https://minerva-access.unimelb.edu.au/server/api description: Public hostname - url: https://rest.mars-prod.its.unimelb.edu.au/server/api description: Origin hostname the service advertises for itself in its own root document (dspaceServer).
