A major shift is coming, and it’s especially important for institutions in the United States.
Starting April 24, 2026, the new ADA Title II rule will require covered state and local entities, including public universities and libraries to make their digital services accessible.
This isn’t just another compliance deadline, it’s an opportunity to lead a new era of digital inclusion. For libraries and universities, accessibility is quickly becoming a hallmark of academic excellence, equity, and innovation.
That’s where Alma Specto comes in.
Alma Specto enables institutions to improve the accessibility of their own content by combining traditional techniques with embedding AI-assisted enrichment directly into existing workflows.
With a variety of tools from creating extended visual descriptions and extracting multilingual texts from image scans, to delivering audio transcripts, and captions, Alma Specto helps institutions automate accessibility at scale – transforming what used to be a manual, fragmented process into an integrated, intelligent workflow.
The result?
- Better usability and discoverability for all users
- Stronger alignment with ADA Title II and WCAG 2.2 AA
- A foundation of inclusion that goes beyond compliance
At Clarivate, we believe accessibility is more than a regulation, it’s a commitment to knowledge without barriers.
With Alma Specto, your institution can be ready for 2026 – and ready to lead.
