Web Accessibility

Jun 11th, 2004 by Karen

Web Accessibility

Well, I've been working my butt off to finish my presentation on web accessibility and OPACs for NAAUG (North American Aleph User's Group). I had my testing and preliminary stuff done a while ago but hadn't put everything together. As a result, I had forgotten what really good resources are available on the web about web accessibility.

So here's a smattering of the ones I found and am using for my presentation.

Adams, C. (2004). “Accessible Stylish Form Layout”, http://www.themaninblue.com/writing/perspective/2004/03/24/

Bohman, P. (2003). “Using Opera to Check for Accessibility”, http://www.webaim.org/techniques/articles/opera

Dive into Accessibility - http://www.diveintoaccessibility.org/

Moss, T. (2003). “What is Web Accessibility”, http://www.alistapart.com/articles/wiwa/

Web Accessibility in Mind - http://www.webaim.org/

All of these have great information and lots of it. So if you are a novice to web accessibility or just want to know more than you know already, these sites are a good place to start.
