Description
The Library eResources Accessibility Portal (LEAP) is a self-audit tool that allows library staff at participating institutions to evaluate the accessibility of library eResources and access a growing repository of accessibility assessment reports to help make acquisition decisions, support library users, and advocate for accessible eResources.
To create or view assessments, please visit the LEAP portal.
