The Mono Lake Research Library is a repository of information on the Mono Basin and related topics. It is maintained at the Mono Lake Committee Information Center on the corner of Highway 395 and Third St. in Lee Vining, Mono County, CA 93541.
Within the research library are documents, books,
files, maps, multimedia, and a herbarium. Certain items may be available
for checkout: contact 
(or
call 760-647-6595) to schedule a visit. Also available for a fee are
photocopier, internet access, CD burning, and fax machine.
The Reports and Studies Database is not yet available. When available it will contain a listing of 465 studies compiled by the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (LADWP), plus a list of all of the documents in the Mono Lake Research Library. Over time, we plan to make as many as possible of these documents available online in a Digital Archive. Special thanks to LADWP, Sharon Foley, and Cole Hawkins for contributing to this project.
- Preliminary Microsoft Access Database (5.8 MB - download and add a .mdb file ending to run)
- Herbarium Contents (MS Excel)
If you are searching for a document in the State Water Board's records and have not found it on the Clearinghouse Website or in the Mono Lake Research Library, the best place to search is the California Water Rights Search Prototype- pilot phase covering water rights in the Mono Basin (100,000+ SWRCB documents). If you have used the search on the Clearinghouse and have not found what you are looking for, the water rights database is the best place to start searching.
