Web Design Do’s and Don’ts (Training Tuesdays webinar)

The Internet has surpassed the phonebook as the go-to place for information on businesses and organizations. It is especially important for libraries to create a dynamic web presence. Though there is no absolute right or wrong way to design a web site, there are several usability–related issues to consider. Usability regarding web pages refers to how well people can interact with a site. As a beacon for accessible information, it is vital that library sites follow a user-centered design and avoid some common pitfalls.

 

Training Tuesdays is a series of webinars presented by Rita Gavelis.
