The Ukrainian Hisorical Society

Founded in 2004, the Ukrainian Historical Society’s aim is to become a national repository for the Ukrainian community in North America, and provide historical information to the public at-large. One of our strategic goals is to engage and educate all sectors of the Ukrainian community about the importance of preserving its rich and vibrant history, and to offer quality programs and services that inform all those interested in the history of the Ukrainian immigration.

The Ukrainian Historical Society relies on individual support to carry out its mission. Membership includes subscription to our semi-annual newsletter, discounts on books, participatory programs and sponsored events. http://www.UHSOC.org

Web Site Design

Improving Your Web Site's Accessibility

So, you followed the WAI guidelines from the W3C found at http://www.w3.org/wai and you hope your site is accessible to visially impaired visitors.

Be Explicit
Label Graphics and Images
First, did you label everything on your web site that isn't strictly text? In most cases, this means using alternative text to describe the function of the item. In HTML, you can provide alternative text for images by adding alt="your description of the image" within the image tag.
