[WEB4LIB] Re: Communication between Librarian & Webmaster?

[Kopczynski, Allison R]

I agree. Prepare the audience for your address about communication by
defining the roles of a librarian and a webmaster, including the differences
and similarities.  However, a Webmaster can be defined as something
different than a Web designer, whose primary role is usually focusing on
design rather than content (although it's my position that the two-content &
design-must go hand in hand in order to have a successful site).

		I would distinguish between content and form.  In
otherwords, librarians
		probably have a better sense of what needs to be on a
website, but the
		webmaster knows how to present it and what is possible. If
the webmaster
		is a librarian, that's the best of both worlds.
