Abstract

This paper presents a new framework for accessibility based on a broad framework for metadata about adaptability. Accessibility is generally associated with the needs of people with disabilities while adaptability includes, for example, the transformation of digital resources and services for users as they change from one access device to another, as is the case when one uses a telephone instead of a desktop computer screen to display a web page. Adaptability with accessibility in mind involves more than device compatibility as it takes into account user's individual needs at the time of delivery of resources and services.
