Reviews

Written by an experienced library web page designer and professor of engineering and information science at the Pratt Institute, this book is full of details that will help librarians create library web pages with HTML, CSS, and XML code. . . . For a book on library web design using HTML, CSS, and XML, it is easy to understand. Rubenstein has a relaxed style of writing that takes the intimidation factor out of library web design using code. . . . In summary, this book provides an enormous amount of information. . . . I would recommend that librarians who are on a quest to design library web pages using HTML, CSS, and XML purchase this book.
