LEAD Website Accessibility Statement
iLEAD is committed to providing websites and digital resources that are accessible to the widest possible audience, including individuals with disabilities. Accessibility is considered throughout the development, review, and maintenance of the iLEAD websites so that trustees, library directors, staff, and other users can access its information and resources.
Need Assistance or Accommodation
If you have difficulty accessing information, navigating the website, or using a document or resource available, please get in touch with the iLEAD team for assistance.
Contact the iLEAD team — ileadtrustee@illinoisheartland.org
When reporting an accessibility issue, please include the page or resource you were attempting to access and a brief description of the difficulty you experienced. We will provide an accessible version of the information or other reasonable assistance when possible.
Ongoing Accessibility
The iLEAD websites are developed and maintained with accessibility as an ongoing priority. Website content and resources are reviewed with consideration for applicable accessibility requirements and recognized accessibility practices.
As we add or update content, we work to identify and correct accessibility barriers and improve the website’s usability for people using assistive technologies.
Accessible Documents
Documents created specifically for the iLEAD Ready Reference are intended to be provided in accessible formats. Accessibility considerations may include appropriate heading structures, meaningful link text, readable typography, sufficient color contrast, alternative text for meaningful images, logical reading order, and properly structured tables.
If you encounter an inaccessible document, please contact the iLEAD team. We will provide assistance or an accessible alternative when possible.
Third-Party Content and External Links
The iLEAD websites include links to statutes, government agencies, professional organizations, publications, and other third-party resources. It may also provide access to documents or materials created by outside organizations or contributors.
Because iLEAD does not control third-party websites or externally produced materials, it cannot guarantee the accessibility of that content. If you have difficulty accessing a third-party resource linked through the website, please get in touch with the iLEAD team. Staff will help locate the information or an accessible alternative when possible.
Report an Accessibility Issue
We welcome feedback about the accessibility of the iLEAD website. If you encounter an accessibility barrier, an inaccessible document, a broken accessibility feature, or any other difficulty using the site, please let us know.
Report an accessibility issue —ileadtrustee@illinoisheartland.org
Please provide sufficient information to identify the page, document, or resource in question. We will review and address accessibility requests as promptly as practicable.
