Description

As the agency reported it.

Working with expert accessibility partners, the museum will embed the use of universal design into digitally based activities and materials. The project team will conduct an accessibility audit of the museum's digital spaces; complete remediation of inaccessible digital content; create new, fully accessible digital content; transcribe key additions to its archival holdings; and determine onsite digital accessibility needs for the museum's reopening following a temporary closure for renovations. The public will have access to descriptive text on website images and accessible virtual programming. Activities also include in-depth training for staff on digital accessibility best practices. This collaborative museum-wide initiative will build the museum's capacity in creating accessible digital content to meet the needs of users of all abilities.
