Format Summary

A need exists to carefully consider how you are making your project-related information accessible to all of your potential intended user groups. Decisions about the manner in which your information is formatted will either increase or decrease the "ease of access and simplicity of use" experienced by your intended users. The judicious choice of effective, flexible and accessible formats will facilitate utilization.

Comparisons can be made in analyzing and describing various types of formats that can serve as primary and alternate formats for your information. Some formats will be more helpful in communicating your message than others. Choices should be based on the information to be disseminated as well as the audience that will receive and use it. Our hope is that the information presented will assist you in avoiding the "automatic pilot" choice and in considering alternatives that may be more effective in different situations.
