Mission Statement

Project MUSE is committed to creating products that are fully accessible to all users. To this end, we strive to ensure our content conforms to the AA level of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2.1) and EN 301 549 Accessibility Standard (V3.2.1), and follows the technical specifications of the Revised Section 508 Standards (published January 2017 and corrected January 2018). MUSE also offers its publishers an Accessibility Guide for how to make their content as accessible as possible on MUSE.

Compliance

Compliance to Section 508 of the US Rehabilitation Act, Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1, and EN 301 549 Accessibility Standard is measured by the Voluntary Product Accessibility Template (VPAT 2.4Rev). All content on MUSE operates under the specifications in the attached VPAT.
