Title attributes on images and links

Good evening,

Not to open a can of worms on the list, unless someone wants to open
it, but I am looking for authoritative articles on the proper use of
title attributes on links and images. My basic question is what is
the value of the title attribute if it is reasonably difficult for
some users to access? SEO, tooltip, other reasons?

Thanks,
Everett
