The homepage provides an introduction and the mission statement of the Rebecca Clarke Society, Inc., and it features the most recent updates. Access to full articles can be found through the News/Events tab, listed in reverse chronological order. The Newsletter page holds the collection of archived newsletters about Clarke and her compositions. The “Her Life” page contains audio and written resources, biography, works list, and bibliography. The works list is in paragraph format, divided by general instrumentation (instruments, choral, solo voice, arrangements). A more structured works list is found on the “Her Music: Scores” page. Following the same categories, these works are initially organized in chronological order and provide the title, scoring or voicing, first performance/dedication, date, sources, text author (when applicable), and publishing information. Links to publishers are found at the top of works list pages. CDs and shirts are sold on the “Shop Rebecca Clarke” page. There are audio samples available for the available CDs. The next page is dedicated to The Rebecca Clarke Society, in which they state their purpose and acknowledge their board of directors and other prominent members. Users can donate to the society on the next page entitled “Support Our Work.” Then, the site promotes the book A Rebecca Clarke Reader by Liane Curtis, including its availability information, reviews, news and table of contents on a separate page. Finally, there is a page with contact information and the option to email the society.

The tables of works can be organized by any category by clicking on the desired category cell.

There are two menus on the homepage that are slightly different. The main difference is that the music tab on the left leads to a detailed works list, while the one at the bottom leads to a page about the CD The Cloths of Heaven. The newsletter page looks disorganized; there are news and events posted at the top from 2014 before the archived newsletters are found.
