Time for an accessibility audit on the website.

Time for an accessibility audit on the website. I'm 90% of the way there before I start. My secret? When *anyone,* even if they are major stakeholders, asks to put a Word document, or anything else that is not already in compliant PDF format or HTML code, on the library's website I refuse. Need some alt text in the Media Library, used judiciously so screen reader users don't get annoyed with the same words twice, in which case alttext="null." Done!

@jillrhudy Hey Jill, thanks for the input. First, can you please explain how that "null." works.
Second - now it gets more complicated - I federate my content with the #ActivityPub-plugin. Captions are not federated on Mastodon, but alt texts are, so I would assume to be accessible in both worlds, screen readers read content on my website twice. And yes, since I started this WordPress version of my website in 2006, I am still not fully accessible.Trying. #wordpress #accessibility #alttext -
@NickBohle @jillrhudy what do you mean by captions are not federated on mastodon?
