Accessibility

This website is run by the Department of History. We want as many people as possible to be able to use this website, and this text describes how www.historiska.lu.se/en/ complies with the accessibility regulations, any known accessibility issues, and how you can report problems so that we can fix them.

How accessible is the Department of History’s website?

We are aware that some parts of this website are not fully accessible. See the section below for more information.

Tecnical information

This website is currently being tested for the Swedish accessibility regulations, against the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines version 2.1. The non-compliances are listed below.

• No link is available to bypass blocks of content that are repeated on multiple Web pages, 2.4.1 (A).
• Title attribute of some link element repeats the text that exists in the link, 2.4.4 Link Purpose (In Context) (Level A).
• Some contrast, which is in the framework, is missing according to 1.4.

Most of the non-accessible content is due to the content management software and not in the hands of the department. We are working to improve these issues during the autumn of 2020.

How we test this website

We perform a self-assessment (internal testing) of the website using WAVE Web Accessibility Evaluation Tool and AccessMonitor for this test.
