Today's websites have evolved beyond simple "brochureware" into complex platforms of strategic value, demanding that designers and managers handle vast information, frequent updates, and diverse objectives. This complexity can lead to sites that resemble chaotic cities—difficult to navigate. Effective information architecture is crucial now more than ever. The second edition of this guide demonstrates how to merge aesthetics with functionality to create cohesive and effective websites. Unlike other resources that focus solely on graphics or technical aspects, this book emphasizes the framework that integrates both elements. With over 75% new content, it includes updated chapters on organization, labeling, navigation, and searching, along with a new chapter on thesauri, controlled vocabularies, and metadata, illustrating their interconnections. The methodology sections have been expanded to incorporate a diverse array of tools and techniques, complementing top-down strategies with bottom-up approaches for emergent solutions. New sections explore the practice of information architecture within broader organizational contexts, while updated case studies provide models for enterprise intranets and online communities. This edition is a valuable resource for anyone involved in creating or managing complex websites, offering practical advice and essential insights for building user-friendly, maintainable platforms.
