Determination 101: You Have to Know Where to Look on these State Board of Pharmacy Website and Even Then You Might Not Find the Information in the Most Logical Place

Louisiana Board of Pharmacy has a number of tabs on its website indicating agendas, minute meetings etc. will be found there.  For example, on the main page there is Consumer Heading and underneath it is a heading for both Agendas and Public Notices. Clicking on either today got me no 2014 information.  Most people would probably stop looking and assume the 2014 information is not available, but if you click on the Public Library tab you will see an Agendas and Binders hyperlink and when you click on it--guess what you get?  You get the 2014 information as shown below. I have no idea why state boards of pharmacy do not do some major revamping and make information a lot easier for everyone to find.  As I have pointed out before, some states like Florida have done just that and made their websites a lot easier to view and to find information.  Until all states do so, if you are looking for a specific piece of information don't give up trying clicking on a number of tabs even if you think agendas is the most logical tab for agendas...you might just find them under the public library tab and not under the agenda tab.
