Archived Web Content Exception Under ADA Title II

Purpose 

Content that has been published for historical, legal, or reference purposes could remain on the website, even if the content is not accessible. However, all criteria for archived web content exception must be followed for web content to be archived. 

Note: Content that qualifies as archivable, may still require an accessible version of the document upon request. A best practice is to create and publish accessible content when possible.

Digital accessibility means creating a learning environment where every student feels included and capable. Being part of this work reminds me that even small efforts can make someone’s academic journey easier and more equitable. — Muqaddas S., Master of Public Health (MPH), Environmental Health
