Utilize 341 and 532 to provide accessibility tags for print disabled patrons
Due to the Marrakesh treaty the 341 and 532 tags were created to make accessibility tags for print disabled patrons. Vega should enable the tags to make these tags available in Vega. I am attaching a sample from the National Network for equitable library services as an example.

Our member library expressed a need for these tags to be indexed; it would be a crucial addition to aid in the discoverability of these materials.

This is incredibly important to us and our users. All of our service goals center on accessibility, and these fields really need to be available to our customers. They use standard vocabulary across other products that is located in the 532, so they are confused/disappointed when they cannot use that controlled vocabulary.

We host the county's Library for the Blind and Print Disabled and these fields allow us to find materials that are accessible for those patrons. In particular, media that has audio description is noted in the 532 field.
