November 2025 Webmasters Forum: Accessibility, AI, and What Today’s Trends Mean for Campus Websites
AI tools are changing how people find and use information, and these shifts directly
affect how our campus websites are interpreted and surfaced online. At the same time,
we’re preparing for the April 2026 Title II accessibility deadline, which makes the
accuracy and structure of our content more important than ever. Clear, accessible,
and up-to-date information helps real users and also improves how AI systems understand
and present our content.
This month’s University Webmasters Forum will look at how accessibility, AI, and current web trends are reshaping our work as web stewards. We’ll connect emerging trends with practical steps you can take to keep your site in good shape, reduce misinformation, and support compliance.
We’ll cover:
-
How AI-driven search changes what users see
-
Why accurate, accessible content matters for both people and AI
-
Common issues surfaced by accessibility scans
-
What these trends mean as we approach the 2026 deadline
-
Simple actions you can take now to improve your site
