Abstract

Standards play an important role in the goal of universal usability: they can specify accessibility requirements for products and services and they are essential for legislation, public procurement and education. This paper presents current media accessibility-related standardization activities in Spain, developed by AENOR. Specifically, these are the standards for teletext subtitling in television (UNE 153010:2003), audio description (UNE 153020:2005), sign language in computing networks (PNE 139804) and web content accessibility (UNE 139803:2004). The paper concludes with a description of future work for these four standards.
