Overview
Icons add visual interest to a page. They also communicate information and ideas. Icons can symbolize actions, provide feedback, or make it easier to scan a page for a certain section.
Icons are most effective when they're used consistently across a web app or site. This helps the user to recognize common actions or information.
For example, an envelope icon often indicates an email address or a mailing address. If you choose an envelope icon for an email address, then use that icon for all email addresses. Conversely, you should choose a different icon for all mailing addresses. Each icon should have one purpose throughout your web app or site.

If you're accessing the icon library on a Commonwealth network, we recommend using the Zeroheight page.
