Since 1969, the Oakland Museum of California has hosted unique collections, exhibits, and educational programs in order to generate a broader and deeper understanding of California's history, people, and environment. Isys designed the museum's website with the intensions of promoting the museum as the most valuable cultural resource in the Oakland community. The colorful site offers visitors online slide shows and exhibits, and pertinent information for those who wish to visit the museum in person or become a supporting member. In addition, Isys recently developed a database to host a calendar function within the site enabling the museum to post events directly to the site.

The museum asked Isys to design the Gold Rush! website to launch in January 1998, celebrating the 150th anniversary of Marshall's discovery of gold at Sutter's Mill. In 1999, we created Our California Underground website to coincide with the museum's exhibit focusing on California caves and subterranean habitats. These sites are both a promotion for and an extension of exhibits at the museum, and are currently accessible to visitors as virtual exhibitions.
