I always feel like this when folks ask if their Libraries are ADA compliant. Like a wheelchair ramp doesn't mean your building compliant, the fact that Koha is web based doesn't mean it's 508 compliant. However, I feel Orwellian in stating that some systems are more equal than others, and as pointed out by another respondant, at least the hood is open to allow tooling for 508 compliance. Over the years, I have fielded a number of queries sent by people with limited or no sight which lets me feel a little better about Koha than I would with another system. <br>
<br>
If you're in the US, have you consulted with a State Talking Books agency? This would be one of very many stops I would make in trying to get a feel for the proper steps one would take towards compliance. (Commission on the Elderly, Deaf Alliances, et cetera being other stops...)<br>
