Welcome To The Vermont Secretary of State's
Web Site Help System

The Secretary of State's Web Site is currently undergoing a major revision.  We appreciate comments and suggestions as well as notification when someone finds something that is broken or not working correctly.  On the bottom of every page is contact information for both Technical Issues and Content Issues.  Getting help is easy and timely, just send us an e-mail or give us a call.  The needed contact information is on the bottom of each page.

A Technical issue is an issue where something is not working correctly like an e-mail, hyperlink or programming issues relating to database display results, Java, etc...

Content related issues center around the actual page content and include things like spelling, incorrect hyperlinks, pictures that don't display correctly, missing or incomplete information etc...

Navigation of the Web Site has been revised with the goal of having no one page more than 3 clicks away from a visitor's present location.  This is done through the combination of a Master Menu which is displayed across the top of every page (except forms which are designed to be printed), and the use of Side Menus that specifically relate to pages of interest for the area of the site you are visiting.

The Web Site is also being being revised so that it meets the World Wide Web Consortium's (W3C) guidance for compliance as it applies to accessibility.  This means that if a Web Page is displaying the 'Bobby Logo', it meets the Level One Criteria for access by individuals with disabilities.  To learn more about Bobby Approval click the Bobby Logo on the bottom of any page that displays it.

This help site will develop into an easy to use help system as revisions to the overall web site take place.  If you need specific help please contact the webmaster.
