Our different library and information services:
AquaDocs is an open access repository covering the natural marine, estuarine/brackish and freshwater environments. It includes all aspects of the science, technology, management and conservation of these environments, their organisms and resources, and the economic, sociological and legal aspects.
AquaDocs was developed in 2021 by merging content from two former repositories, OceanDocs and Aquatic Commons, and is used by researchers, students, information and data managers, government officials and policy-makers.
The Ocean Best Practices System (OBPS) is a global initiative aimed at improving and standardising practices for collecting, analysing and sharing ocean data and information.
OceanExpert serves as the main repository to manage information we have on experts, institutes, IOC events and other relevant information. OceanExpert serves as a connector between several IODE Programme components and IODE programme activities, avoiding a multiplication for the information shared between them.
