Preserving state government digital information:

Options for Improving Access to Legislative Records

Overview

Access to information has been greatly enhanced by the ubiquity of the web; but there are limitations that impede even greater access. Information stored in proprietary formats or dynamically generated content may be unreadable by web search engines, thus making certain web content invisible to searchers. Persons using assistive technologies may have difficulty interpreting certain content elements. Improving access and allowing for user-created value of records is also important.

 

White Paper

This white paper examines the approaches and tools used for improving access to legislative records.
