Of the information available about the book, the presence of non-textual content and the available alternative are indicated

Numeric books can contain anything other than text, such as images and other media. These elements require text alternatives, and metadata must clearly indicate whether these alternatives are present.

Objectives

  • Limit the risk of complaints

Implementation

  • Ajout un code ONIX comme [196 14] (pour de courtes descriptions textuelles alternatives) ou [196 52] (pour indiquer que le contenu non décoratif peut être lu sans la vue)
  • Include information on the book presentation page

Control

    • The presence of media other than text.
    • Presence of text alternatives for these medias.
