Effective Web Design: "A Fresh Look"

Library Learning Network

Broadcast December 6, 2002

Today's Web sites need to offer more than just access to online catalogs and databases. Web sites need to anticipate the user’s expectations with design elements that make it easy to find and use information. Organizations, especially libraries, need to take a fresh look at their Web sites in light of usability and accessibility issues.

Experts will present and discuss user-centered design benchmarks, practical usability testing techniques, the do’s and don’ts of writing for the Web, and targeting search results for the user while providing for efficient site management.
