The main goal of this project is to develop a digital library system for natural resource managers, such as the forest supervisors of the USDA Forest Service national forest system, and their technical staff. This project has a goal of knowledge management in that the scientific assessment, opinions, experience, and judgment of agency personnel are embodied in the various internal and external documents produced as part of various projects and decision-making processes. The idea is to make it very easy to find documents relevant to the current projects or problems and thus reuse information.
