Transcript

  1. “The shift of working content first (conversation design) instead of

    structure first (system design) is how we worked … before we ever moved to layout and design.” Stephanie Hay, Content First Design, A List Apart
  2. “Content strategy helps organizations provide the right content, to the

    right people, at the right times, for the right reasons. ” Megan Casey, The Content Strategy Toolkit
  3. “The control which designers know in the print medium, and
