DEVELOPING AND DESIGNING FOR MOBILE PART IMobile Websites and Mobile Website Development
The Mobile Website
• A web site designed for the small screens of mobile phones or tablet devices.
• Mobile sites render web pages in narrow columns and often provide only a subset of the regular web site.
• When a request from a mobile browser is made, the site redirects it to its mobile counterpart for a more streamlined surfing experience.
Definition of mobile website. PC Mag, Encyclopedia: http://www.pcmag.com/encyclopedia/term/60020/mobile-web-site /
Responsive Web Design
• Web design approach aimed at crafting sites to provide an optimal viewing experience—easy reading and navigation with a minimum of resizing, panning, and scrolling—across a wide range of devices (from mobile phones to desktop computer monitors).

Kurogo Mobile Platform• http://kurogo.org/ • Free• Open source• Web development experience
necessary (HTML 5 & PHP)• Requires server & administration
experience• Device detection then uses responsive
design to format for best view• Modules• Native app creation facilitation

DEVELOPING AND DESIGNING FOR MOBILE PART IIApp Development
Mobile Website vs Mobile App
Mobile Website vs. Mobile App (Application) Which is Best for Your Organization?: http://hswsolutions.com/services/mobile-web-development/mobile-website-vs-apps/
App Attack!
Native App• Java, Objective C, JQuery
Mobile• Single platform• Full hardware access (GPS,
camera, accelerometer, etc.)• Can be used offline• Tricky to get usage statistics• Make new version for each
platform
Web App• HTML, CSS, Javascript• Mutli-platform (with
caveats)• Limited hardware access
(GPS?)• Requires Internet
connection (with caveats)• Standard webstats (with
caveats)
App Comparison
Creating an App
App Development
• “We invite you to develop computer and mobile applications using {free} National Library of Medicine (NLM) resources.”
NLM API’s: http://www.nlm.nih.gov/api/
App Discussion
• Do you have library staff experienced with app development programming? Are there training options?
• Which apps do your library patrons use the most? Are they requesting information about apps from the library?
