We'll add audio descriptions upon request but haven't had any yet. The bigger issue is that our video players don't generally offer multiple soundtracks, meaning we have to have the video uploaded twice: one without AD, one with.

Policy-adjacent for our DL. https://digital.library.unt.edu/accessibility/#text-alternatives; bullets 3-5. Interesting note for Texas institutions: TAC §206.70(a)(1) and §206.70(b) would supersede/cover for local institutional policies, but puts an .edu into a weird space regarding the timing of remediation efforts if hit by a DOE complaint (I think, TINLA). https://texreg.sos.state.tx.us/public/readtac$ext.TacPage?sl=R&app=9&p_dir=&pg=1&ti=1&pt=10&ch=206&rl=70 Would be interested if anyone addresses Audio Description since that's of equal import to blind users, required for AA compliance, and AFAICT almost no one does them given the cost.
