*** Important Note ***
Documentation is now fully incorporated into the unified IBM Accessibility Checklist - Version 7.x. Take particular note of the two specific documentation checkpoints.
This new version of the accessibility checklist unifies guidance for web content, non-web applications (software) and documentation into a single checklist that can be used to assess compliance with the Revised Section 508 standard in the United States, as well as the European EN 301 549 standard. It is required for all deliverables with a Plan Checkpoint Date on or after July 18, 2017.
Teams using the older 6.1 software checklist can continue to refer to IBM Documentation accessibility checklist version 2.1.
