_Library Website Design and Development: Trends and Best Practices_ is
a how-to guide written specifically for librarians and library
technologists who are designing or redesigning their library website.
Whether in academic, public, or special libraries, library websites
are created as a service to users – a digital branch of the physical
library where users can find and access the information they require.
As such, library website designers grapple with meeting
library-specific needs and concerns while also designing a website
that looks modern and on trend.
This book provides library website designers with foundational
knowledge of the standards and best practices that apply to all
websites, but also delves into the current trends of modern library
websites specifically. Outlining the process of creating a
well-organized, accessible, and user-friendly website for library
users, the book starts with needs assessment and content organization,
continues through site navigation and user experience design, and
closes with a look at website analytics and the process of ongoing
maintenance and assessment.
_Library Website Design and Development: Trends and Best Practices_
provides practicing web librarians with an inclusive step-by-step
guide to all of the topics inherent in the website design and
development process, while also taking a focused look at the unique
needs of library websites. Each chapter in this book covers the
foundational knowledge needed for an aspect of website design and is
supplemented by a list of additional resources that go into further
depth on each topic.
