Web Pages
An accessible website can be understood and navigated by all people, regardless of any disability or impairment. The following topics address the most important accessibility considerations for editors of Brandeis websites.
-
Structure pages with properly nested headings and sub-headings
-
Provide descriptive alt text (image description) for all images
-
Link unique, descriptive words or phrases, not words like "click here"
-
Use tables to display information in rows and columns, not for layout
-
Ensure all documents uploaded to your website are as accessible as possible
-
Provide captions and/or transcripts for audio and video recordings
Please Note: Accessibility best practices apply to all web content, including files and/or media you upload or link to on your website.
