We are happy to announce our first successful data ingestion via OAI-PMH. In a collaboration with Regensburg University Library our colleagues there managed to include the OpenAPC metadata directly into their institutional repository where it can be harvested using the OAI-PMH protocol. This will make submissions via mail or pull requests unnecessary for Regensburg in the future, as OpenAPC will actively harvest the data in regular intervals.
