Feb 10 at 6:30pm - UCLA - Lynn Boyden presents Information Architecture

Information architecture: 21st century librarianship

Information architects create the structure and navigation of information experiences, on the web and in the wild. We combine elements of librarianship, ethnography, business, and magic to make a user’s experience a thing of pleasure. Learn which of your powers you can use for good on your own website and your career.

Lynn Boyden is a librarian, teacher, mother, author, speaker, chauffeur and homeowner in Los Angeles. You can google her to learn more.

You can bring your own dinner or $10.00 for a Daphne's Greek "experience".
