Smartphones can be great tools for getting directions in unfamiliar neighborhoods, posting to social media sites, or even reading ebooks. But, most smartphone users would surely agree that using these small-screened devices to surf the web is frequently a frustrating experience. Websites that aren't optimized for mobile devices will load with tiny text and tightly-placed links. Enlarging the text often results in an experience where readers are forced to scroll from side to side. And when links are close together, it can be a challenge to tap the right one, leading users away from the pages they're trying to access.
Libraries should consider this more than an aesthetic issue, since there is evidence that the smaller the tablet or mobile device, the less people tend to browse the web, according to a recent blog post by leading interface designer Luke Wroblewski, who cites data collected by electronista.com. Ten-inch tablets like the Samsung Galaxy tab averaged 125 page views during the month of February 2012, while nine-inch tablets like the iPad averaged 116. Seven-inch tablets averaged 90 page views, and 5-inch tablets averaged only 79.
"What could be behind this precipitous drop in page views?" Wroblewski asks.
Wrobleski connects the dots, pointing to a recent analysis of the Kindle Fire by useability expert Jakob Nielsen. Nielsen was very critical of the 7-inch tablet, which he tested with a focus group of four users.
"The most striking observation from testing the Fire is that everything is much too small on the screen, leading to frequent tap errors and accidental activation," Nielsen writes. "You haven't seen the fat-finger problem in its full glory until you've watched users struggle to touch things on the Fire."
The same is likely true for web browsing. Sites that aren't optimized for small devices may frustrate visitors and discourage regular visits, even as mobile devices are becoming the primary Internet access point for a growing number of their users, according to an analysis of Internet use on mobile phones published by the Pew Internet and American Life Project in June.
There are several solutions to the problem, including developing or buying a library-specific app for patrons to download; developing a separate website designed for mobile devices and redirecting mobile traffic to that separate site, as the Free Library of Philadelphia and others have done; or developing a single website using Responsive Web Design (RWD) techniques.
Responsive Output
At the Canton Public Library (CPL) in Michigan, Digital Resources Developer Brad Czerniak was inspired to experiment with RWD techniques in 2010, after reading an influential article by designer Ethan Marcotte. Developers should be using CSS3 media queries to design sites that "actually inspect the physical characteristics of the device rendering our work," and adapt accordingly, Marcotte argues.
Since that summer two years ago, CPL's site has been designed to adjust and optimize based on the size of the device being used to access it.
"I feel strongly that Responsive Design is the future of the web," Czerniak said. "Responsive sites support unity, while 'mobile sites' and platform apps cause fragmentation. We have one website for one audience: our patron community. If someone visits the site, whether from a desktop computer at home or a smartphone in the park, they can expect the same content. Any given page can always be accessed at the same web address, regardless of device. Clicking/tapping from a web search takes the user directly to the site, rather than a redirect or some annoying prompt to download an app. Responsive sites work the way you intuitively expect them to."
Rollout of the newly designed site was quiet, and the responsive features aren't trumpeted to patrons. But Czerniak said that they have "received feedback from patrons who are pleasantly surprised that our site is so easy to use on their mobile devices." Mobile visitors accounted for about 10 percent of all site visits in June 2012, he added.
"The biggest challenge for responsive sites is achieving balance; designing a site to suit its content rather than the screen size of every conceivable device," Czerniak wrote in an e-mail. "Ideally, a design starts small (for screens on devices that have low bandwidth and limited processing power) and then scales the layout and visual elements to suit larger viewports. Since we had an existing site design for desktop machines, our design starts big and adapts down to small screens. Future iterations of our site design will likely incorporate 'mobile first' principles to further improve the user experience across a wide range of devices."
The Mobile First approach argues that "we should not be developing mobile sites as an afterthought or an addendum to our full, or desktop, sites. We should actually consider the needs of mobile users first, and then add on beyond that. We should design primarily for the mobile experience," Nina McHale, assistant systems administrator for Arapahoe Library District, explained during the "Top Technology Trends and LITA Awards Presentation," session last month during the ALA Annual Conference in Anaheim.
McHale, a 2012 LJ Mover & Shaker, chose Mobile First and Responsive Web Design as her top trends for the year, and citing Wroblewski, she explained that mobile users tend to access the web for four different types of activities. They want to look something up or find something; explore or play online games; check in with friends or post a status update; or edit and create something.
As LJ summarized after the panel, "designing with an eye toward those activities, a library mobile site might include a branch finder or catalog site search, a readers advisory app, a way for patrons to review checkouts and see if they have any fines, and a way to comment on a library's webpage or write and submit reviews, McHale suggested."
Mobile in Philly
Whether utilizing responsive web design techniques, or simply designing a separate, standalone website optimized for small screens, mobile websites not only offer casual users a better browsing experience, they can also help bridge the digital divide.
The Pew survey found that 17 percent of respondents said that they do "most" of their online browsing using their phone. Many of these people use their phones out of convenience, but for some "their phone is their only option for online access."
In Philadelphia, where up to 55 percent of households lack a home computer, The Free Library of Philadelphia has been responsive to such numbers. Since 2010, the library has been a managing partner in the "Freedom Rings Partnership" (FRP). Through this grant and funding from the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation, the Free Library has been able to set up 'Hot Spots' in six community organizations and to launch a Techmobile (in spring 2012) to bring computers, Internet access and one-on-one assistance to neighborhoods where there is limited computer access, such as public housing developments, according to Anne Silvers Lee, chief of the Free Library's Materials Management Division.
But the Free Library has also made fast and easy mobile access a priority by offering free mobile hotspots and, since 2009, a standalone mobile website that is easy to read and navigate on phones.
Three years ago, the library began by launching a mobile version of its catalog that offered users the ability to search for books and other materials, place holds, and perform select "My Account" functions, Silvers Lee said. A few months later, the mobile site was expanded to include the most heavily-used areas of the regular website, including full access to My Account, a branch finder, an event calendar, links to e-content, blogs, staff book reviews, and featured booklists, podcasts, links to social media content, and more.
"During June [2012], about 4 percent of the visits generated internally came from mobile devices, while about 16 percent of the external visits were from mobile devices," Silvers Lee wrote in an e-mail put together with input from other Free Library staff. "All of the mobile pages combined received 73,473 pageviews, which is pretty consistent with previous months. The most popular functions, in order of use, are the event calendar, the catalog/My Account functions, the branch pages, the clickthrough to our Overdrive content, and the podcasts. We have also been providing a 'Text a Librarian' service for a couple of years now."
Future plans for the mobile website include updating to HTML5 and designing "a more interactive, fluid, and 'app-like' experience; adding more content from full website (such as booklists, FAQs, and so on); and creating a mobile layout for our VuFind catalog discovery installation," according to Silvers Lee.

In December, a study came out suggesting a link between distillers grains — a waste product of the corn-ethanol process — and a spike in cases of beef tainted with the deadly E. coli 0157 virus.
You see, the government-mandated ethanol boom has dramatically pushed up corn prices. To cut costs, feedlot operators have been substituting cheap distillers grains for pricey corn. Thus in the past year or so, we've seen an explosion in use of distillers grain as livestock feed, especially for cows.
When I heard about the possible E. coli 0157 link, I put two and two together and wondered aloud whether maybe we should stop feeding so much distillers grains to cows … if it causes E. coli. After all, industrial corn itself is known to damage cows' livers and create a great intestinal environment for E. coli 0157. Maybe fragmented, denatured corn — the chewed-up-and-spit-out leftover from the ethanol process — is even worse?
Well, Philip Brasher of The Des Moines Register reports that evidence of a distillers grains/E. coli 0157 link has been building, and even the USDA has gotten concerned.
Richard Raymond, the USDA's undersecretary for food safety, told Brasher he "thinks distillers grains are one of several factors behind the spike in [tainted meat] recalls."
Yikes. Does that mean the USDA's food-safety czar agrees that maybe feedlot operators should … um … stop feeding distillers grains to cows? No. He's got a better idea. Reports Brasher:
Raymond said the government had no intention of restricting the use of distillers grains even if the E. coli link is confirmed, and would instead leave it to the industry to decide how to address the issue. One possibility, he said, is to vaccinate cattle. "I'm not about to tell the cattlemen what they are going to feed their cows."
To this jawdropper, Brasher dryly adds: "No E. coli vaccine has yet been approved for use in cattle."
Right. To my way of thinking, the E. coli 0157 problem calls for a return to grass — which keeps cows healthy and free of pathogens deadly to humans. For the USDA, the problem amounts to another opportunity for the pharmaceutical industry — a new vaccine!
Brasher's article contains other gems. Here's one:
Meatpackers recalled a record 33.4 million pounds of beef last year for possible E. coli contamination, up from just 181,900 pounds in 2006, according to the USDA. The old record of 25.6 million pounds was set in 1997.
Whoa. That's an 18-fold spike in a single year. And get this:
The 21 recalls last year — the most since 2002 — included one by now-defunct Topps Meat Co. that totaled 21.7 million pounds.
So a single giant recall in 2007 nearly matched the previous record for recalls in an entire year.
Here's an interesting tidbit on the economics of distillers grains — why feedlot operators will likely keep using them even if they're shown to cause the deadly virus:
The … president of the Iowa Cattlemen's Association said he pays $35 a ton for distillers grains, the equivalent of $2.85 a bushel for corn. In his area, corn has been selling for more than $4 a bushel. It takes the equivalent of 70 bushels of corn to fatten a steer.

Annual shareholder meetings—which traditionally have been mostly pep rallies—are not showing the love this year.
At Citigroup's (NYSE: c) shareholder meeting this week, speaker after speaker vented rage at how the banking giant has been operating.
Bank of America's (NYSE: bac) CEO Ken Lewis and the bank's board are under fire from shareholders over the acquisition of Merrill Lynch and losses that led the bank to take taxpayer bailout funds. There is even speculation that shareholders may try to remove Lewis and the board at next week's meeting.
And General Electric, (NYSE: ge) parent company of CNBC, has had its annual meeting in Orlando, Florida picketed by dozens of company retirees over dividend cuts.
So what's bringing out the knives in 2009's annual meetings? While there are plenty of issues to complain about, analysts point to the anger over executive compensation as corporate enemy number one.
"It's the symptom and the cause of what's wrong," says Nell Minnow, founder of Corporate Library, an independent research firm for corporate governance. "There are other issues like accounting and risk management, but compensation is a driving force."
In some cases, shareholders have won concessions. Just today, Pfizer (NYSE: pfe) shareholders approved a version of "say on pay" at their annual meeting, though the measure is non-binding.
Still, annual meetings remain more about venting than substantive change.
"Shareholder meetings are not an effective way to do business," says Anne-Marie Fink, book author and vice president at JP Morgan Asset & Wealth. "The forums are too large and have different aims. And institutional investors, which average 70 percent of public companies, rarely attend."
Of the proposals pending before companies, executive compensation remains the top issue as of April 15th, according to RiskMetrics Group, a financial risk management firm:
- Advisory vote on compensation 107 (number)
- Require majority vote for directors 86
- Report on political spending 60
- Right to call special meeting 46
- Take action on climate change 36
"The majority of proposals by shareholders last year and this year are on executive compensation," says Colin Diamond, a partner in the capital markets group of White and Case, a global law firm. "I think another year of executive compensation is likely to be top item on agenda."
One example of the compensation movement can be seen through SEIU Master Trust, the manger for pension funds of the Service Employees International Union.
SEIU Master Trust sent letters to boards of directors of 29 firms in its portfolio, including Goldman Sachs (NYSE: gs) , American Express (NYSE: axp) and Morgan Stanley,(NYSE: ms) demanding they investigate more than $5 billion in compensation to those firms' executives. The SEIU Master Trust also demanded that the companies overhaul their compensation practices to prevent incentive pay regardless of corporate performance. They also plan to propose the changes in proxy votes.
Experts say the annual meeting season this year will continue to be an ugly one.
"There are going to be a lot of angry shareholders turning out," says Joseph Crivelli, a senior vice president and investor relations professional at Gregory/FCA. "The CEOs I work with are spending a lot more time focusing on their presentations and they are prepping to make sure they have good answers for questions."
"It's the business climate and the growing recognition that we as a society have been enablers for this bad behavior," says Minnow. "It's important to let the CEOs know we are paying attention to them and people are letting them know."
"People want piece of mind," says Michel Breit, head of the Public Company Group at Eisner LLP, an accounting firm. "Boards and CEOs are very concerned cause they are going to get questions and they don't want to be embarrassed."
And some analysts say they've already seen a change.
"Boards are changing their compensation packages," says Pat McGurn, special counsel at RiskMetrics Group. "Companies don't want to have what happened at Citi's meeting with all those angry investors."
But whether shareholders can make a permanent difference beyond their anger, still remains an issue for some analysts.
"The entire shareholder activisim movement has come about because boards are not viewed as helping shareholders," says Professor Espen Eckbo of the Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth College. "Boards are really working for management rather than shareholders. Until that changes, not much will get done."

"I think shareholder proposals have a tough time passing," says Greogry/FCA's Crivelli. "Most individiual investors don't really read the proposals and simply proxy their vote to the board. It's tough to overcome that thinking."
And at least one expert says the whole issue over shareholder anger could go away with a better economy.
"It's all about how shareholders are doing," says Steve Barth, a partner at Foley and Lardner a law frim specializing in corporate services.
"If share prices are up, shareholders are happy,' says Barth. "Executive compensation would not be an issue if the economy was doing better."
Barth also says it's up to companies to determine which proposals by shareholders are really valuable. "You get the same people year after year making a hundred proposals," says Barth. "Those are not always the accurate feelings of the shareholders."
And executive compensation is not really new, according to Breit. "We had the issue 10-15 year ago," says Breit. "What's making it more relevant today, is TARP. Companies taking government money are under more pressure."
But as shareholders battle for control over executive compensation, seek open votes for board members and demand more corporate transparency, experts say CEOs are on notice, at least for now.
"I think we will see a couple of CEOs lose their jobs," says Corporate Library's Minnow. "The anger is there and we'll have to see how it plays out, but I expect the anger to have an effect for now and the future."For more stories from CNBC, go to cnbc.com.

Sweet potatoes are a root vegetable most known for the Thanksgiving side dish—sweet potatoes! But this terrific tuber offers wonderful health benefits that should be incorporated into the diet year-round. It's an excellent source of vitamin A, a very good source of manganese and vitamin C, and a good source of copper, fiber, potassium, tryptophan, and vitamins B3, B5 and B6. And sweet potatoes are chock-full of beta carotene—a carotenoid with antioxidant properties. By consuming foods rich in beta carotene you can help keep your body healthy and happy. In the body, beta carotene is stored in the liver, and from there the body converts it into vitamin A. And beta carotene may help increase memory and protect your cells from free radical damage. Take note! If you notice that your skin seems yellowish on the palms of your hands and soles of your feet, you may have carotenodermia—excessive consumption of beta carotene. This condition is not associated with any toxic side effects but you may want to reduce your beta carotene intake!
Looking for new ways to enjoy sweet potatoes? Look no further:
- Bake some sweet potato wedges to pair with turkey burgers
- Instead of traditional latkes, bake some sweet potato latkes
- Make a batch of sweet potato chips
- Mash or smash boiled sweet potatoes
- Roast sweet potatoes so you can add them to simple salads
- Whirl up a creamy, rich sweet potato soup
