IIT Kanpur PKK Library Koha REST API
The REST API of the Koha 23.11 integrated library system that the P.K. Kelkar Library self-hosts at libserv.iitk.ac.in. Verified live on 2026-09-01: the spec is served at /api/v1 (Swagger 2.0 on the wire, 667KB), a Swagger UI renders at /api/v1/.html, /api/v1/public/libraries returns IIT Kanpur's own library records with no authentication, and staff endpoints such as /api/v1/libraries return 401 Authentication failure. This is ONE API with 64 resource groups, not 64 APIs. The 64 OpenAPI documents below are per-tag splits of a single source contract (openapi/_original/iit-kanpur-library-rest.yaml) produced by the API Evangelist refine step, and they are listed here as properties of one surface rather than as 64 separate entries.
