Web Design and Resources
Whilst there are plenty of (paper based) literature on all aspects of Web Design, and also the underlying infrastructure (I have a small library myself on the subject), I have found many online resources invaluable. My list is not exhaustive, and predominantly targeting the tools and resources specific to our site's CMS, based on Drupal 7.
