  The Sacramento River Portal & Library is designed so that stakeholders and researchers can easily find proposed, ongoing, and past projects and studies that affect the Sacramento River. This project is supported by The Nature Conservancy's Sacramento River Project office in order to improve science and save time, money and other resources.

Through its interactive web application, researchers can enter information about their work into an on-line database that meets federal and state standards for metadata. Metadata allows everyone to more easily find what they are searching for. This information will be organized into catalogs, which are subgroups or metadata records organized around a specific subject or the needs of a particular organization. The Monitoring and Research Metadata Catalog is the first of many such catalogs.

This project is powered by public-domain, open source software including Zope, MySQL, Python, Apache server, and the BSD operating system. The goal is to create a set of tools with clear documentation that can be freely used in other watersheds and projects for similar purposes.
