# OAI-PMH Support

pycsw supports the The Open Archives Initiative Protocol for Metadata Harvesting (OAI-PMH) standard.

OAI-PMH OpenSearch support is enabled by default. HTTP requests must be specified with `mode=oaipmh` in the base URL for OAI-PMH requests, e.g.:

    http://localhost/pycsw/csw.py?mode=oaipmh&verb=Identify

See http://www.openarchives.org/OAI/openarchivesprotocol.html for more information on OAI-PMH as well as request / reponse examples.
