NOAA Central Library provides content management support to several Virtual Library Projects at NOAA:

Aquaculture Virtual Library
Coral Data & Publications Catalog
Marine Protected Areas Virtual Library
NOAA Restoration Portal
Pacific Islands Climate Change Virtual Library

Aquaculture Virtual Library

The Aquaculture Library provides information of interest to scientists and others working with marine aquaculture. While the Aquaculture library focuses on NOAA-related activities and materials, it is also a source for information for others working in the field of aquaculture and related fields. Resources include bibliographies, citations of peer-reviewed articles, and NOAA publications.

Coral Reef Information System (CoRIS) Coral Data & Publications Catalog

Coral Reef Information System (CoRIS) Coral Data & Publications Catalog, also known as the CoRIS virtual library, offers scientists, resource managers, and other coral enthusiasts direct and indirect access to coral ecosystem datasets and products. The Catalog is home to thousands of metadata records, citations of peer-reviewed journal articles, NOAA scientific publications and technical memoranda, conference proceedings, educational and outreach materials, and much more. It also provides direct links to other coral ecosystem websites, both internal to and outside of NOAA. Online access to literature is provided as available.

Marine Protected Areas Virtual Library

MPA Virtual Library

The MPA Virtual Library is a database of MPA literature and information organized by three collections: Bibliography (articles, books, reports, proceedings); Institutions and Organizations; and Web sites. The MPA Virtual Library includes descriptive records and links to full-text when available.

Related resources include:

• MPA Research Tools
  A guide to conducting research in the field of marine protected areas and marine reserves. How to locate general background information on MPA subjects, along with information on MPA programs, information resources, special topics, news, training, and conferences.
• MPA Resources in the NOAA Central Library
  The NOAA Libraries' catalog describes books, conference reports, video and special issues of journals devoted to MPA subjects. Each resource is specified as a "Marine Protected Area" document, so one can browse all the resources tagged as Marine Protected Area documents.
  Browse the MPA Documents collection in the NOAA Central Library Catalog.
• MPA Center History Collection
  A special collection documenting the formation and operations of the National Marine Protected Areas Center.
  Use the Finding Aid to browse the contents of this collection. The physical collection is stored in NOAA Central Library.

NOAA Restoration Portal

The NOAA Restoration Portal provides centralized access to information about NOAA restoration programs, projects, and activities through a single point-of-entry. This site serves as a gateway to NOAA restoration publications, Web sites, audiovisual materials, and case studies.

• NOAA Habitat Restoration Resources in the NOAA Central Library
  The NOAA Libraries' Online Catalog includes books, conference reports, video and special issues of journals devoted to habitat restoration subjects produced by NOAA and its partners.
  Browse NOAA Restoration Documents in the NOAA Central Library Catalog.

Pacific Islands Climate Change Virtual Library

The U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) developed the Pacific Islands Climate Change Virtual Library using the combined resources of NOAA’s Central Library, National Oceanographic Data Center, Office of Ocean and Coastal Resource Management, Coastal Services Center, and Pacific Services Center. The project was supported by a grant from the NOAA National Ocean Service (NOS) International Coordinating Council (NICC), which is managed by the NOS International Program Office.
