Primo can harvest records from an OAI repository by sending scheduled OAI-PMH requests. In order to harvest, Primo requires the following information:

  • The OAI server IP address and port number.

  • The OAI set to harvest.

  • Indication of whether the OAI repository being harvested is a static OAI repository.

For ongoing harvesting, Primo retains the data and time of the last request.

Verify that the OAI server returns a valid response. If there are any technical issues with the connection, contact the provider of the repository.
