Re: [jats-list] Accessibility element?

["B Tommie Usdin btusdin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" <jats-list-service@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello Ravit --

The BITS tag library has a section on Accessibility at:
  https://jats.nlm.nih.gov/extensions/bits/tag-library/2.0/chapter/accessibil
ity.html

If you have any specific questions please ask on the list; I will try to
answer, and I think there are several others on this discussion list who have
experience that may be relevant.
