The Victoria and Albert Museum (V&A) collection as an API — over 1.2 million objects spanning 5,000 years of art, design and performance, from textiles, ceramics and furniture to fashion, photographs, prints and jewellery. Search and filter the collection by keyword, maker, place of origin or material/technique, optionally limited to objects that carry an image. Fetch any object by its system number for the full record: title, makers, production date, place, materials and techniques, categories and styles, gallery location and high-resolution IIIF imagery. Browse every work by a given maker (e.g. William Morris), or pull a random object. Real museum data, no key needed upstream. Ideal for art and design apps, galleries and slideshows, education and cultural research.

The Directory of Open Access Journals as an API, powered by DOAJ — the authoritative, community-curated index of vetted open-access scholarship covering more than 20,000 quality-controlled journals and 10 million+ articles across every discipline. Search open-access journals with full Elasticsearch query syntax, getting each journal's title, ISSNs, publisher and country, subjects, languages, whether article-processing charges (APC) apply, license and the year it became open access; read a journal's complete record including its subjects with classification scheme, keywords, licences, APC prices, fee-waiver policy, peer-review process, plagiarism detection, long-term preservation and self-archiving (deposit) policies and homepage; search open-access articles returning title, authors, journal, year, DOI, keywords and a free full-text link; and read an article's full metadata with its abstract, authors and affiliations, journal and ISSNs, pages, subjects and direct links to the freely readable full text. Ideal for open-science tooling, library and repository systems, research discovery, APC and policy analysis, and any application that needs legally free, peer-reviewed scholarship. Identify a journal by its ISSN and an article by its DOI or DOAJ id from search results. Data from DOAJ.
