+# IAccessible2
+Accessibility services framework for Microsoft Windows environments.
+
+IAccessible2 is an accessibility API which complements Microsoft's earlier work on MSAA.
+This API fills critical accessibility API gaps in the MSAA offering. IAccessible2 was created out of necessity to
+produce a usable and accessible OpenDocument Format (ODF) based office suite for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
+IAccessible2 is an engineered accessibility interface allowing application developers to leverage their investment
+in MSAA while also providing an Assistive Technology (AT) access to rich document applications and web browsers.
+The additional functionality includes support for rich text, tables, spreadsheets, Web 2.0 applications, and other
+large mainstream applications.
