Code List 196 - 99: Publisher contact for further accessibility information

Usage

Code 99 is used to include a email address that users can use to contact the publisher for more information about the accessibility of the publication or to report issues with the publication.

The email address should not be one for general inquiries but should be one that is specifically for asking accessibility questions.

The email address is provided in a <ProductFormFeatureDescription> element.

If the publisher uses a trusted intermediary to answer accessibility questions, the email for that organization is listed under code 98.

Examples

Example 1 — Publisher email

   <ProductFormFeatureValue>99</ProductFormFeatureValue>
   <ProductFormFeatureDescription>

   </ProductFormFeatureDescription>
</ProductFormFeature>
