The Sherman Library took the unique opportunity to build a public library website where there wasn’t one before. A fresh start, no baggage, with plenty of time to talk, plan, design, develop, make mistakes, get delayed, and user-test. This is the narrative of the entire process – the whole shebang: answering why the design committee opted to build a mobile-first, responsive, and flat website, the data they used to convince stakeholders to ditch the carousel, the techniques and pains behind development, content strategy, and seeing the website launch. Attendees have a unique look into the workflow of another library, the user-experience research and best practices that drove our decision-making. In short: we made the font huge, stopped supporting old Internet Explorers, took all the tabs off the search box, and embraced the white space. This is why.
