It is not as rich as can be found in other community web sites, but this should also be taken in context of the community's size. For local content, some is sparse, such as places of worship and links to the Public Schools, while other content is fairly rich, such as the City of Albion and the Albion Public Library. Within the Public Library pages, residents may use a very nice web interface for library searches. This is itself a result of The Forks initiative, automating the Public Library information system and linking it with Albion College Library's system. A community calendar is kept up to date, with links to local events, and a web discussion board is available for residents.
Information appears to be reasonably current and accurate.
The Web discussion board is an excellent feature of The Forks web site. It has already been used to great advantage in bringing public awareness and participation in discussion of the city's water supply. Otherwise, limited special features exist in the web site. Within the overall initiative however, a number of innovative programs exist. Because of the small size of the community and the economic difficulties it faces, The Forks is a major Internet Service Provider to the community.
