Updates to the IPA Blog

Although Spring hasn’t quite sprung yet in Iowa, we are in a season of change for the IPA blog! In response to feedback from our members, we’ve made a couple changes.

Having to take that extra step to log in was prohibitive in accessing our content. As of today, the blog is now available without having to log in. This will make it easier to go directly to the posts that interest you and will make it easier to share links to posts. Please note, this also makes blog posts visible on search engines and to the public.

Prompted by constructive feedback from a member, we updated accessibility of the blog and the website.

  • Video captioning is now available during all IPA Zoom meetings and presentations. Anyone joining can request to turn on closed captioning and the host will approve it.
  • Alternative text has been added to all images on the IPA website retroactively and will be added to all images in the future.
  • We ran an accessibility check against Web Content Accessibility Guidelines and made recommended changes.
  • We adjusted website settings to ensure a sufficient contrast ratio between background and foreground elements to assist low vision users.

As you can see, the WEB committee has been busy! We are also looking to add another 1-2 members to our committee. If you’re interested, please contact Katie Kopp.
