*About the Webinar*

The increased utilization of mobile devices for content consumption places
demands on publishers to be more adept at engaging on mobile devices. As
the device market has changed, size, capability, and usability of the
devices continue to evolve rapidly. The capability of the web sites needs
to keep pace with the changing market both in terms of rendering content on
devices and managing the access to the content.

One of the first waves of design called for using custom Apps for mobile
devices. Many of the early adopters learned quickly that App maintenance
consumed more resources that anyone had predicted.

Access management is another consideration for the mobile experience.
Simply put, publishers want be sure that users are authorized to have
access to content. In the academic environment, the task is particularly
troublesome because students are transient and very mobile. Rather than
setting up onerous, session based manual login processes, content
providers, usually enabled by hosting companies, have developed techniques
to “pair” devices with authentication systems to ensure that access is
available when requested, but not extended past a designated time frame.
Management of this capability should be transparent intermediaries, such as
librarians, but available for management should the need arise.

In this NISO Webinar, speakers will discuss multiple form factors including
responsive web design and responsive design with service side components,
that help institutions deliver a great experience to their users.

Topics and speakers are:

• *RESS*: *Responsive Web Design + Server Side Components - **Marty Picco*,

• *Providing Information across Multiple Devices to the Public Health
Workforce: Challenges and Opportunities - Hathy Simpson*, MPH, Public
