Request for Quotation: Accessibility Conformance Report for Evergreen OPAC
The Evergreen Project (TEP) (a 501(c)3 which governs the open source Evergreen ILS project) is seeking quotes for Accessibility Conformance Reports (ACRs) based on the Voluntary Product Accessibility Template (VPAT) 2.4 INT framework. At this time, TEP seeks a vendor to provide an evaluation of 41 interface pages and 15 user tasks.
Evergreen is an open source integrated library system that provides a web interface for libraries’ catalogs and user account management. More information about the Evergreen ILS can be found at https://evergreen-ils.org/about-us/
Access to a test database with logins, as well as a software overview presentation, will be provided to the selected vendor. However, any vendor who wishes to see the software in question can visit https://demo.evergreencatalog.com. A user login to use is username 99999376864, password leona1234. Please note that this demo system is not running the most recent version of the software, but is running a version that is new enough to give an accurate sense of the scope of the project.
Interested vendors should provide pricing for this project to kgm@evergreen-ils.org no later than August 11th, 2023.
Questions regarding the scope of the project may be directed to:
Katie Greenleaf Martin, TEP board secretary
kgm@evergreen-ils.org or 717.873.9461
