"Information architecture (IA) is the structural design of shared 
information environments; the art and science of organizing and labeling 
websites, intranets, online communities and software to support 
usability and find-ability; and an emerging community of practice 
focused on bringing principles of design, architecture and information 
science to the digital landscape. Typically, it involves a model or 
concept of information that is used and applied to activities which 
require explicit details of complex information systems. These 
activities include library systems and database development."


IA is one of those fields whose applications are all around us, but is 
only noticed when done poorly.  The above book makes you aware of the 
concepts and techniques of IA, and helps you articulate its application 
(and misapplication).  While the book uses web sites for concrete 
examples, IA is widely applicable (including CPAN).
