U-M Google Accessibility

This page provides information about known accessibility barriers and workarounds. Questions can be sent to the Knox Center staff at [email protected]. General information about Information Technology (IT) Accessibility at the University of Michigan is on the U-M IT Accessibility Efforts page.

Important: Google makes frequent feature releases, interface changes, and service upgrades, often without advance notice. Due to this, the accessibility of new features, interfaces, and services in U-M Google has not been properly tested, and workarounds have yet to be determined. If you have any questions or concerns, use our digital accessibility contact form.
