Accessibility

Books are for everyone was the founding sentence of this product, and it includes people who read this site with a screen reader, a keyboard, or high-contrast settings.

What this site does

  • Every page starts with a skip link to the content.
  • Interactive elements — the navigation, the FAQ, the modals, the journal demonstration — are keyboard operable; modals trap focus and close on Escape.
  • Text colours meet WCAG 2.1 AA contrast against their backgrounds, and focus is always visible.
  • Animations respect your reduced-motion setting.
  • Decorative graphics are hidden from assistive technology; informative ones carry text alternatives.
  • The site is readable in five languages, switched from every page header.

Known limits

  • The journal demonstration announces its recomputed figures only when focused; a live-region version is on the list.
  • Translated pages carry a note where detailed passages remain in English for now.
