Accessible by Design: Preparing Your Library Website for the 2026 Accessibility Rule (Washington State Library) Online
Does your library’s website work without a mouse? Can a screen reader navigate the content? Is the language plain and simple? Patrons in every community rely on these features to use the internet, but many websites – including some library websites -- remain inaccessible. That will need to change, starting in April 2026, under a new U.S. federal government rule that requires local government websites to meet certain accessibility standards. Join staff from the Washington State Library as we kick off a monthly series to learn about the new standards and our patrons and staff who depend on them. We’ll have a resource guide, free tools and technical support to help make your online content perceivable, operable, understandable and robust for everyone in your community.
