Accessibility issues in Romanian municipal websites
Journal Title: Revista Romana de Interactiune Om-Calculator - Year 2015, Vol 8, Issue 3
Abstract
The accessibility of public websites is essential for the successful implementation of the information society. Given that the society includes people with various forms of disability (visual impairments, cognitive, hearing, etc.) they should also have equal opportunities in accessing and using the public information. This paper presents the results of a study carried on in 2015 that assess the accessibility of 150 municipal web sites. The evaluation was done with Total Validator. The accessibility issues have been compared with the results of previous studies. The results show a low level of web accessibility and instability of results in time.
