Elizabeth,
There are web accessibility guidelines and they are not inforcible.
I'll see if I can find them for you.

Subject: [nabs-l] Any Existing Accessibility Guidelines?

Hello All,

I understand the National Federation of the Blind is currently advocating 
for legislation to create national guidelines for creating accessible 
instructional course materials. However, I am curious, are there any current 
guidelines regarding accessing visual information such as course materials, 
online platform systems, and video monitors that only display visual 
content? I am not a very technical person, so I am not quite sure how to 
make information technology accessible even though I know it is possible and 
required to provide equal access to students with disabilities. Any 
information you could provide in regards to this matter would be greatly 
appreciated.

Thanks,
Elizabeth
