"Just read your book cover to cover - twice. Excellent. I have been involved is this area for more than seven years - now I know what to call it! Through your web links have discovered a community that I can talk to about shared issues."

David Shaw, Network Web Editor.

"Just to say that I love your book and have decided that I'm an IA at heart! I have a background in Graphic Design and Information and Library Management (rather than technology) and the blending of the two disciplines seems to match the emerging profession of IA very well."
