Description

In the Fall of 2020, while many of us were still working remotely, the Accessibility Strategist and Disability Studies Librarian at the University of Michigan Libraries put together a small team to begin offering services to add accessibility features to digital holdings in the libraries' collections and other digital objects being created by the library on a regular basis. Since that time, our team has established services to provide remediation on-demand for document based, audio, and video media held by the libraries, and is providing ongoing long-term remediation of digital collections. Currently we provide remediation for PDFs through structural tagging and other improvements, captioning for audio media, and captioning and visual description services for moving image and video.
