Electronic & Information Technology (Section 508) Homepage. The Board’s Section 508 Standards apply to electronic and information technology procured by the federal government, including computer hardware and software, websites, phone systems, and copiers. They were issued under section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act which requires access for both members of the public and federal employees to such technologies when developed, procured, maintained, or used by federal agencies.
The Section 508 Standards are part of the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) and address access for people with physical, sensory, or cognitive disabilities. They contain technical criteria specific to various types of technologies and performance-based requirements which focus on functional capabilities of covered products.

100 Killer Web Accessibility Resources: Blogs, Forums and Tutorials | WHDb. Update November 13, 2012: This article was originally posted May 1, 2008. Since then, it has been our most popular article here at WHdb.com. In light of this, we have decided to give this article an update for 2012: we cleaned out some obsolete links and added a New for 2012 section.
Enjoy! In 2006, a blind student filed suit against the online retail Target presence because he couldn’t gain access to the Web site. The code and layout prohibited him from entry. That lawsuit didn’t go away–eventually, Target’s appeal was denied in a Baltimore court, and sentiment turned against this retail giant in its bid to qualify for exemption from Web site accessibility. The reason behind this lack of goodwill toward Target is that Web site accessibility is a human rights issue as well as a commercial compliance issue. Why wait? The categories listed below are in alphabetical order, as are the sites listed within those categories. New for 2012 Back to index Accessibility Sites Blindness/Partial Sight.
