Promoting Reuse of Existing Description
Use the description you already develop to support accessible publishing. If you develop and maintain language describing the visual resources to which you hold or manage the rights, you can promote the accessibility of those visual resources by supplying descriptive language when responding to requests to reproduce visual resources.
Incorporating Image Accessibility into Editorial Processes
