If you are purchasing digital information resources that do not meet accessibility standards, or if the manufacturer does not provide an ACR (commonly referred to as a VPAT), you may be required to complete an accessibility exception. These documents are common across federal and state agencies and institutions.

An exception explains how the owner of the digital information resource (typically the individual who requested the product) will accommodate individuals who encounter difficulties using the product due to accessibility issues.
