Usability and Accessability
As users adopt the products and begin to tailor them for their own sites, there is a risk that the usability and accessibility of the current products will be lost. While accessibility standards may seem more straightforward, it can often be confusing trying to ensure that the layout and wording on a page meets the required accessibility standards and also still function in a usable manner. LAWs has developed usability and accessibility guidelines to assist local authorities when building and tailoring their sites.
In conjunction with IBM, LAWs has provided a summary of relevant usability and accessibility guidelines that will ensure that Local Authority websites meet the most stringent international requirements where necessary.
