The following table provides a crosswalk between the properties defined in the EPUB Accessibility specification [EPUB-A11Y-11] and The EPUB Accessibility exemption property [EPUB-A11Y-Exemption] and the equivalents defined in the ONIX metadata standard [ONIX].
The conformsTo term used in EPUB is drawn from Dublin
Core.
