G151: Providing a link to a text transcript of a prepared statement or script if the script is followed

Applicability

All technologies that present live audio-only information

This technique relates to:

Description

The objective of this technique is to provide a transcript or script if the live audio content is following a set script. Because it is prepared in advance, the script can be more accurate and complete than live transcription. However, the script will not be synchronized with the audio as it plays. Live audio should not deviate from the script for this technique.

With this technique, a link to the transcript or script is provided and should conform to WCAG 2.0 and could either be included at another location on the same Web page or at another URI.

Examples

Tests

Procedure

  1. Check for the presence of a link that points directly to the script or transcript.

  2. Check that the live audio follows the script.
