Digital Accessibility

WSU Vancouver Library Website

The Library is committed to maintaining a website that is usable and accessible to all.  As part of this work, we use automated evaluation tools and manual checks to ensure our website meets Level AA of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1.  

Digitized Collections

The WSU Vancouver Library Archives & Special Collections includes many materials that are digitized by the Library.  This material is related to the history and culture of the WSU Vancouver campus and the history of Clark County and Southwest Washington region.  Often these materials are selected in collaboration with local museums and historical societies.  Formats include images, documents and audio recordings.  If you have difficulty accessing our digital archival collections, please contact our Archivist, Robert Schimelpfenig at schimo@wsu.edu.  We will provide you with an accessible version or work with you to address your concerns.
