  Nagoya University (名古屋大学) is a national research university in Nagoya, Aichi,
  Japan, ranked #152 in the QS World University Rankings 2025. As a leading
  research institution it operates a range of academic and IT services through
  its Information & Communications (ICTS) division and university library. Its
  most clearly documented public, machine-readable API surface is the NAGOYA
  Repository institutional repository, which runs on the NII WEKO3 / JAIRO Cloud
  platform and exposes an OAI-PMH 2.0 interface for harvesting scholarly
  metadata. Most other systems (student portal, NU-ID identity, course
  registration) are gated behind THERS/GakuNin (Shibboleth/SAML) authentication
  and are not publicly documented developer APIs.
