Subject: [WEB4LIB] Web Site Standards for Usability and Design

As we move toward a web site redesign project, I'm looking to the community for advice on the most current web site standards, specifically those for public libraries. Do you have a favorite publication or web resource that you've recently used?

I respect the information outlined at http://www.usability.gov/ and the related publication found there called "The Research-Based Web Design & Usability Guidelines, Enlarged/Expanded Edition", but it was issued by the U.S. Dept. of Health and Human Services in August 2006 and it seems to me there could be something more recent.

Looking forward to hearing what others are using!
