Grainger Engineering Library at University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Their OAI Registry have collected Identify, ListSets, and ListMetadataFormats information from all of the OAI compliant repositories they could find from various sources, added it to a database, indexed it, and made it searchable. They have also created several standard reports from the data. This system is driven entirely from database queries against their database, and not from live queries to the OAI repositories. Therefore, at any given time the data will be out-of-date by one to two weeks. The data in their database will be periodically refreshed from the original OAI repositories.
