  <Title>Accessibility Updates Coming to myUMBC</Title>
  <Body>
    <![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content"><p>As we approach our late-April accessibility compliance deadline, we want to share a clear roadmap of the changes coming to myUMBC and what they mean for you.</p>
    
    <h3>Phase 1: Content Checks &amp; Preview</h3>
    <p><strong>Coming later during the week of March 23rd.</strong></p>
    <h4>Content Checks</h4>
    <p>When editing a Post or Event, you'll see a new <strong>Content Checks</strong> section that flags accessibility issues before publishing, such as missing alt text on images or broken links.</p>
    <p>Previously, you could publish posts and events without addressing accessibility issues. That is no longer the case, <strong>flagged issues must be resolved before content can go live</strong>.</p>
    <h4>Preview &amp; Publish</h4>
    <p>The publish button has been replaced with a <strong>Preview &amp; Publish</strong> button. Clicking it takes you to a preview of your content where you can:</p>
    <ul>
    <li>Review how it will appear to readers</li>
    <li>Return to edit if needed</li>
    <li>Send a preview of the notification email to yourself</li>
    <li>Share the preview link with teammates for review</li>
    <li>Publish to make it live</li></ul>
    
    <h3>Phase 2: Content Archiving<br></h3><p>In late-April, any content with unresolved accessibility issues published before <strong>January 1, 2023</strong> will be marked as archived. The most common issue is images missing alt text.</p>
    <p>Admins will have access to a report showing all of their group's flagged content. If you resolve issues before mid-April, that content will not be archived.</p>
    <p>Here's what to expect for content that is archived:</p>
    <ul>
    <li>It will appear under a new <strong>Archived</strong> filter in your group</li>
    <li><strong>URLs will not change</strong>, so existing links won't break</li>
    <li>Archived content is <strong>read-only</strong>, but you can edit and republish it at any time</li>
    <li>It will display a prominent banner indicating the content is archived and may not be current</li>
    </ul>
    <p><strong>For departmental websites: </strong>If your site pulls in myUMBC group content, no changes are needed on your end. Archiving will be reflected automatically on your site.</p>
    
    <h3>Why This Matters</h3>
    <p>These changes reflect UMBC's institutional commitment to making myUMBC accessible to everyone. The goal is to make compliance as manageable as possible — catching issues early, giving you visibility into your content, and providing time to act before archiving occurs.</p>
