Description:
These guidelines explain how to make Web content accessible to people with disabilities. The guidelines are intended for all Web content developers (page authors and site designers) and for developers of authoring tools. The primary goal of these guidelines is to promote accessibility. However, following them will also make Web content more available to all users, whatever user agent they are using (e.g., desktop browser, voice browser, mobile phone, automobile-based personal computer, etc.) or constraints they may be operating under (e.g., noisy surroundings, under- or over-illuminated rooms, in a hands-free environment, etc.). Following these guidelines will also help people find information on the Web more quickly. These guidelines do not discourage content developers from using images, video, etc., but rather explain how to make multimedia content more accessible to a wide audience.

Description:
The web has been a boon to the free flow of information, for some people. For others, accessing web-based information has been and in some cases needlessly continues to be a frustrating and nearly impossible endeavor. Changes to the Americans with Disabilities Act and the Rehabilitation Act require campus websites to be accessible to people with disabilities. These laws say that access to web-based or other technologically mediated communication is a right for everyone, regardless of any disability.
