Welcome to the CDRH Accessibility Wiki! This is a wiki to help build an accessibility knowledgebase for our web development work in the Center for Digital Research in the Humanities (CDRH) at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln. Much of this information is available elsewhere on the web, so the goal of this wiki is to help build CDRH-specific documentation and curated lists of external resources. Besides outlining the basics, this wiki will address specific technologies we use (such as Omeka S and Jekyll), link to relevant web accessibility resources, and provide examples, templates, and code snippets to support a more standardized structure across CDRH web projects.
This GitHub Project aggregates issues and resources for complying with the April 2024 ADA Title II rule, which requires following WCAG 2.1 Level AA guidelines for all public-facing digital assets.
