About this year’s digital annual report

This year’s report uses flash-based, page-flipping technology to simulate the look and feel of a traditional print annual report. However, this digital version is far more interactive than a print publication. Watch various video clips and click on links to learn more about particular programs, products, or services.

This technology allows you to quickly navigate from page to page using the arrows at the top. If you’d like to increase the type size, click on the “zoom” feature. And, if you prefer to read the report in paper form, click on the “print” button. If you need help navigating the report, the “help” feature provides quick guidance.
