Managing Accessible Content on Thousands of Sites

Universities publish a lot of content on the web! It is not uncommon to have thousands of domains and millions of pages. On top of that, public universities must follow WCAG 2.0 AA guidelines for web accessibility.

When working with thousands of domains and millions of pages, how do you know where to start?

Just over a year ago, Washington State University received a complaint through the Office of Civil Rights that some of our web pages were not accessible. This talk will cover the steps we took to address the complaint, how we started to grasp where 5 million URLs were published, and what processes and open source tools we have in place to ensure that web accessibility is our top priority.
