Impact Water - Arizona
Be a community scientist. Learn, explore, borrow monitoring tools, contribute.
A LABrary is a community-based resource center where you can “check out” scientific tools—just like borrowing books from a library. Equipment includes water quality meters, groundwater level sensors, microscopes, and lab kits. By making these tools accessible, LABraries expand opportunities for hands-on learning, STEM exploration, and local data collection.
You don't need to be a hydrologist to make a difference—get involved with the Arizona Community Science Alliance.
Water is life in the desert! By joining a water quality community science group, you’ll help protect one of Arizona’s most precious and limited resources. Whether it's rivers, lakes, or wells, your data helps detect pollution, track changes, and support restoration and conservation efforts. Plus, you’ll connect with others who care about clean water, science, and making a real difference in your local environment. Let’s keep Arizona’s water safe together!
LABraries make science accessible to everyone. By providing community members with tools for hands-on exploration, they encourage STEM learning, enable local data collection for both surface and groundwater, and strengthen community engagement in science.
