UX Book Club: Reading Content Design
Details
Content Design by Sarah Richards has been talked about and referenced in UX circles since it came out a year ago, so it's time we cracked it open. Please read the book before the meetup so we can have a vibrant discussion.

"Between 2010 and 2014, Sarah Richards and her team at the United Kingdom’s Government Digital Service did what many thought impossible: they took over 400 separate government websites and transformed them into a single site designed to effectively serve its users. In doing so, they defined a new discipline: content design.
"Content design isn’t graphic design or just copywriting under another name. Content design focuses on what content best serves the users’ needs, whether it be the written word, infographics, visuals, videos, or charts."
Feel free to grab dinner or a drink at one of the Broadway Food Hall establishments (https://broadwayfoodhall.com) and eat/drink during the discussion!
