The Montana Legislative Branch is reviewing its website http://leg.mt.gov/css/default.asp with an eye toward making improvements to content, design, navigation, and organization.
The first step will be a survey of website users, to invite their ideas for how to make the site better, according to Gayle Shirley, legislative information officer. A brief online survey will be available through Dec. 31 on the home page of the website at http://www.leg.mt.gov/css/default.asp
"We recognize that many different categories of people use the legislative website for many different reasons," Shirley said. "To make the site as useful and useable as possible for all of them, we need their input. We need to understand their needs and expectations."
Shirley said she hopes to hear from legislators, legislative staff, state agency employees, lobbyists, advocates, government and civics teachers, as well as the general public.
Shirley chairs a work group made up of legislative employees who oversee website content and organization.
"We have a lot of good ideas," she said, "but we realize that we're more likely to have a successful website if we hear from a broad range of customers. We hope people will take a few minutes to share their thoughts with us, both what they like and what they don't like."
For more information about the survey or the legislative branch website,
