Does the Policy prohibit links to external Web pages which do not meet the standards of the University’s Web Accessibility Policy?
No. Links to external Web pages which do not meet the standards of the University’s Policy do not have to be removed. Noncompliance should not obviate external Web pages as a source of information for the greater majority of people. In some instances, the University can encourage external sources to make Web pages more accessible. When linking to external Web pages, the University should find out if external pages are compliant with the University Policy, and be prepared to make reasonable accommodations when needed.
