Standards for State Websites
Standards are used to establish procedures and properties relevant to processes and requirements. At the request of the State CIO, the eServices Office has developed recommendations for the State's approach to website accessibility, website usability, and separating content from presentation. These recommendations were adopted and should be used in the planning of new and redesigned State websites.
