AMS Voluntary Product Accessibility Template Documents
Under Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, federal agencies are required to make their electronic and information technology accessible to people with disabilities. The Voluntary Product Accessibility Template (VPAT) is a document that evaluates how accessible a particular product is according to the Section 508 Standards. Vendors complete VPAT forms to disclose the accessibility of a product according to Section 508 requirements. Below are completed VPATs for AMS products MathSciNet®, eBooks and electronic journals.
VPAT documents describe the accessibility features and known limitations of each product.
