What’s of interest? Accessibility For Everyone by Laura Kalbag
Tell me more!
We first published Accessibility For Everyone with A Book Apart back in 2017. This means the book is now 9 years old. Accessibility best practices haven’t really changed, and you should still find this book valuable. However, some of the recommended tools might be outdated, job titles have changed, and the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines are now approaching version 3.
Perhaps someday I (Laura) will find time to write a second edition, but first I wanted to make the book free, and available for the web community who have generously shared their knowledge with me.
About the book:
You make the web more inclusive for everyone, everywhere, when you design with accessibility in mind. Let Laura Kalbag guide you through the accessibility landscape: understand disability and impairment challenges; get a handle on important laws and guidelines; and learn how to plan for, evaluate, and test accessible design.
Leverage tools and techniques like clear copywriting, well-structured IA (Information Architecture), meaningful HTML, and thoughtful design, to create a solid set of best practices. Whether you’re new to the field or a seasoned pro, get sure footing on the path to designing with accessibility.
