<p>While every user has different accessibility needs, meeting the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines
(WCAG) 2.0 requirements, even at level A, is a baseline that ensures a publication will be widely
accessible. Publication providers may therefore wish to create specific search capabilities to permit
users to find publications that have declared conformance to WCAG at any level. We suggest the creation
of an "Accessible" search filter that only returns publications with metadata that indicates conformance
to the user-selected WCAG Level &#8212; A, AA, or AAA.</p>

<p>Publications with full audio created for mainstream use provide important access for many users with
disabilities even though they are not accessible to all. (Note that these publications differ from
traditional audiobooks in that the audio accompanies the full or partial text of the publication.)
Publication providers may already have search tools aimed at finding traditional audiobooks, since they
are popular and common, but even if not, this would be a good addition to the suite of tools for finding
accessible publications. Publications with full audio may not pass WCAG requirements, however, because
they are targeted at a specific audience rather than broadly accessible. As a result, they would not be
found using the <q>Accessible</q> search suggested above.</p>

<p>Any of the metadata fields discussed in detail below could also be used as a filter &#8212; a
<q>Screen-reader accessible</q> search would be valued by screen reader users, and a way to ensure
no publications with hazards are downloaded would be valued by those with light-sensitive epilepsy or
other hazard-related conditions. But if only a single additional search filter fits best in a site's UI,
a tool for finding accessible materials that declare conformance to WCAG 2.0 is the best choice to
provide.</p>
