A lot of museums are experimenting with ways to meet these requirements with the ever-changing technology, but there are no standards specific to museum applications. However, the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0 Level AA is the best place to start. https://www.w3.org/WAI/intro/wcag These are currently voluntary guidelines (the Department of Justice's web regulations are on hold) that apply to the web, mobile apps, and authoring tools and offer guidelines on color, contrast, making digital materials screen readable (for people who use software that reads out the text and alt text) and keyboard/keypad operable, captioning, and much more. It's great that you're thinking about this at the beginning of your project. If you let accessible/inclusive design concerns drive your design from the beginning, you'll end up with programs that serve everyone better. > > Good luck! > Jan > > Janice Majewski > Director, Inclusive Cultural and Educational Projects > Institute for Human Centered Design > humancentereddesign.org > > [log in to unmask] > 617-695-1225 x 301 > > >> On Thu, Apr 5, 2018 at 7:38 PM, Frick, Laura <[log in to unmask]> wrote: >> Hi Ilana, >> >> I would be very interested to hear any/all replies to this! >> >> Thanks, >> Laura >> >>> On Thu, Apr 5, 2018, 6:31 PM Ilana Short <[log in to unmask]> wrote: >>> Hello, >>> >>> Has anyone worked with creating virtual exhibits for iPads and other tablet technology?
