Voluntary Product Accessibility Templates
Voluntary Product Accessibility Templates (VPATs) are documents that evaluate how accessible a particular information and communication technology (ICT) is according to the federal Section 508 Standards. They are produced by vendors and can be used to evaluate a new program, software, or other ICT for accessibility. In the chart below, we have included Accessibility Statements and VPATs from products or software used on Library of Virginia websites, including Find It Virginia.
