  "description": "A JSON projection of the OAI-PMH 2.0 record structure served by Qatar University Press's Open Journal Systems endpoint at https://journals.qu.edu.qa/index.php/index/oai. OAI-PMH is an XML protocol; this schema exists so agents and pipelines that work in JSON can validate a parsed record. Derived by API Evangelist on 2026-09-01 from live Identify, ListIdentifiers and ListMetadataFormats responses. Not published by Qatar University, and not a substitute for the OAI-PMH 2.0 XSD at http://www.openarchives.org/OAI/2.0/OAI-PMH.xsd.",
