CASE STUDY: Non-profit Organization
The Portland Community Chorus
Since 2001
The Portland Community Chorus Web site offers audio archives, rehearsal and concert schedules, directions to venues, and a private "Members Only" area where singers can keep in touch, find rehearsal aids, and chat with each other.
The PCC home page: expandable, accessible navigation at left (see Principles for a discussion of "accessible drop-down menus"), important news items easy to find at a glance, and links for joining or sponsoring the group.
Archives list detailed program information and link to audio archives where available. EON Webware captured the audio from CD's, edited it for length, and equalized the samples for Web playback using sophisticated audio editing tools.
Full directions to various rehearsal or concert venues can be found on the site using attractive and zoom-able maps.
Recently added: a clean and simple member forum within the protected Members Only area of the site.
