Creating a Responsive Website: PPLD Friends--A Case Study
Franklyn, Virginia
Computers in Libraries, v33 n3 p7-11 Apr 2013
The Friends of the Pikes Peak Library District (PPLD) had a legacy website that was remotely hosted and maintained by a volunteer. They wanted a more significant presence on PPLD.org and an easier interface with which to update information. The developers decided to create a new Friends site in Drupal, using RWD, CSS3, and HTML5. The plan was to make a simple, clean site that promotes the Friends and its services and encourages donations of time and money. This article discusses the process of building the website, along with the challenges and advantages. (Contains 5 resources.)
