Concordia Open-Textbook Accessibility Checklist<\/h2>\r\n
\r\n

Accessibility Matters<\/h2>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\nConcordia University has committed to making its website accessible to all in adherence with Quebec\u2019s legal requirements and accessibility standards. Open textbooks need to include an accessibility statement and perform accessibility checks, such as using the free-to-download WAVE Evaluation Tool<\/a>.\r\n\r\nWhen reviewing the visual design of your book, look at the accessibility of font size, content organization, links, and colour contrast. Projects that incorporate audio and visual materials enhance the educational potential to reach a diverse range of learners, but also require additional accessibility considerations.\r\n\r\nOur Open-Textbook Accessibility Checklist increases the potential for everyone to access the content regardless of disability, device, or technical constraint. This checklist is also available as a PDF through the\u00a0Concordia Open Textbook Accessibility Checklist<\/a>.\r\n
