In general, publications and databases produced in CC2.1 are stored permanently in CGSpace and Dataverse, respectively.

We also have a library in Zotero. This library is called "RTB Seed Systems" and so far we have more than 2700 references including papers, reports, presentations, etc. If you want to access to this library, create an account in Zotero and send the username to Julia Zamudio (j.zamudio@cgiar.org), so she can invite you to the library. You will be able to download publications and also upload your publications so that they can be accessed by others. You can use the standalone version of Zotero that allows you to work offline (Figure 1), or the Web version in which you need to be connected to the Internet (Figure 2).
