Synopsis

Why Intranets Fail (and How to Fix Them) is a practical guide to some of the common problems associated with Intranets, and solutions to those problems. The book takes a unique end-user perspective on the role of intranets within organisations. It explores how the needs of the end-user very often conflict with the needs of the organisation, creating a confusion of purpose that impedes the success of intranet. It sets out clearly why intranets cannot be thought of as merely internal Internets, and require their own management strategies and approaches. The book draws on a wide range of examples and analogies from a variety of contexts to set-out in a clear and concise way the issues at the heart of failing intranets. It presents step-by-step solutions with universal application. Each issue discussed is accompanied by short practical suggestions for improved intranet design and architecture.

Key Features: jargon-free and aimed at information professionals with sole/mixed responsibilities; draws many examples from broader library management contexts; clearly distinguishes between intranet and Internet technologies.

Readership: Information professionals with primary/secondary responsibility for Intranets or Intranet sites within an organisation. Library managers and directors.
