Newly adapted for audio.

Information architecture (IA) is far more challenging - and necessary - than ever. With the glut of information available today, anything your organization wants to share should be easy to find, navigate, and understand. But the experience you provide has to be familiar and coherent across multiple interaction channels, from the web to smartphones, smartwatches, and beyond.

To guide you through this broad ecosystem, this popular guide - now in its fourth edition - provides essential concepts, methods, and techniques for digital design that have withstood the test of time. UX designers, product managers, developers, and anyone involved in digital design will learn how to create semantic structures that will help people engage with your message.

This book includes:

  • An overview of IA and the problems it solves for creating effective digital products and services
  • A deep dive into IA components, including organization, labeling, navigation, search, and metadata
  • Processes and methods that take you from research to strategy, design, and IA implementation

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

So far, the book is fine. One oddity, however: In chapter nine(search), there seems to be a segment read verbatim from the earlier chapter on labels (specifically, a portion of the analysis of Starbucks website). Doesn't impact the overall usefulness of the book...just a weird error. I'm putting this here because the Audible "Get Help" chat is pretty useless for an unusual issue like this. If your problem isn't one of their listed topics...there is no way to describe it and get help.

The book is well organized, clear and right to the points. The updates make good connections between old and new changes. The book especially provides an easy to understand and practical guide and adoptable approach for new company to build a good foundation towards information management and governance before they become necessary separate subjects in the organization. I enjoy both the content and the listening experience very much. Thank you,

I listened to 6.5 of 11 hours and learned nothing, despite being very motivated by a pending project to reimagine the structure and nav of a large, complex B2B app. There is near-zero practical advice in this book, unless there's some gems in the last 40% in which case do you really want to learn information architecture from authors who can't say anything useful in the first 60% of their book? The content is abstract, a high-level overview of the domain of IA with no real advice for practicing/solutioning. It is like a boring college lecture. The authors can't even define IA (they give 4 definitions). Even if you are designing a big mostly static site I fail to see how this book is more helpful than free articles on the internet. My actual takeaway is that IA is less a legitimate field on its own than a vehicle for big talking consultants to charge high rates. If the work you need to do involves UX, the recent audible release about intuitive design is 100x more valuable.

Useless waste of time
