-SARA WACHTER-BOETTCHER

Founder of Active Voice and author of Design for Real Life

I am in awe. This book breaks down thorny, technical issues masterfully and makes them accessible to anyone. Even the most experienced practitioners will find something they hadn't considered. Plus, it's a laugh riot. 14/10.

-ERIKA HALL

Author of Just Enough Research and Conversational Design

At last, a book that doesn't dwell in defining the damn thing for the sake of conceptual purity, and in doing so, elevates information architecture practice. Lisa Maria Marquis shows us that even the most minute decisions can have consequences; only by owning them can we build a better web.

-LÍVIA LABATE

Everyday Information Architecture brings together the latest thinking on the practice in a compact volume. More importantly, Lisa Maria puts IA in a modern context, demonstrating not just how to make good decisions about structure, but why they matter.
