class="font-weight-bold mb-0"> Emerald Publishing is committed to ensuring that our platform is accessible for all of our users, regardless of their ability or technology. We are constantly working on improving the accessibility and usability of our platform. </p> <p> Our platform endeavours to conform to level AA of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) <a href="https://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/" target="_blank">Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1</a>, <a href="https://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/" target="_blank">Web Accessibility Initiative Accessible Rich Internet Applications Suite (WAI-ARIA) 1.1</a> and Section 508 Standards of the <a href="https://www.section508.gov/" target="_blank">U.S. Federal Accessibility Standard</a>. These guidelines detail how to make content accessible to a wide range of people with disabilities, including blindness and low vision, deafness and hearing loss, learning disabilities, cognitive limitations, limited movement, speech disabilities, photosensitivity and combinations of these. </p> <h2 class="mb-3 mt-5">Embedding Accessibility: Emerald’s Approach</h2> <p> Emerald aims to ensure that accessibility is at the heart of our platform development, by subscribing to five core principles: </p> <h3 class="h4 mt-4">Development</h3> <p class="mt-1"> All features and functionality on the Emerald Insight platform are developed in line with WCAG 2.1 and WAI-ARIA 1.1 guidelines. These are based on relevant international accessibility guidelines. Where possible our approaches to meeting accessibility guidelines have been validated through testing with relevant user groups. </p> <h3 class="h4 mt-4">Testing</h3> <p class="mt-1"> All features and functionality on the Emerald Insight platform are tested by our internal testing team before being deployed on the live site. Automated and manual testing is conducted to ensure new features and functionality conform to accessibility guidelines. </p> <h3 class="h4 mt-4">Review</h3> <p class="mt-1"> An accessibility audit of the Emerald Insight platform is conducted periodically to ensure it conforms to international accessibility guidelines. Any issues discovered are assessed and prioritised accordingly in our accessibility roadmap. </p> <h3 class="h4 mt-4">Feedback</h3> <p class="mt-1"> Feedback is welcomed from users to notify us of any accessibility bugs they find or any aspects of the site that they found particularly useful. Your feedback helps us to improve Emerald Insight. Please contact us on <a href="mailto:support@emerald.com">support@emerald.com</a>. For more contact options please see our Contact us section for different way to send us feedback. </p> <h3 class="h4 mt-4">Transparency</h3> <p class="mt-1"> We aim to be open and honest about what is not working well on our platform and what needs to be improved. We aim to resolve known issues as quickly as possible. </p> <h2 class="mb-3 mt-5">Accessibility Roadmap</h2> <p class="mt-1"> In light of our commitment to remain open and honest about where our accessibility can be improved, this roadmap details our plans to address issues that arise and to make necessary improvements. </p> <table class="table mt-3"> <caption class="sr-only">Table of known Web Content Accessibility Guideline issues and their respective estimated time to resolve</caption> <thead> <th style="width: 180px;">WCAG guideline</th> <th>Description</th> <th>Estimated time to resolve</th> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <td> Success Criterion<br /> <a href="https://www.w3.org/WAI/WCAG21/Understanding/keyboard" target="_blank">2.1.1 Keyboard</a> </td> <td> <p> We display AltMetrics badges on some content pages and search results.

Once a link has been highlighted, use the ENTER key to activate the link. </p> <h3 class="h4 mt-4">Logical tab order and page layout</h3> <p class="mt-0"> We've built pages so that it's easier to tab through the links – the content area is reached immediately after the header, making it easier to move around within a site. </p> <h3 class="h4 mt-4">Changing the text size</h3> <p class="mt-0"> Most browsers will allow you to change the font size. Guidance on making text size larger can be found on Abilitynet’s <a target="_blank" href="https://mcmw.abilitynet.org.uk/impairment/making-text-larger">My Computer My Way</a> page. </p> <p> Alternatively, see the "help" section in your browser for more details on customization. </p> <h3 class="h4 mt-4">Skip to main content link</h3> <p class="mt-0"> We've positioned skip to main content link at the top of the page so that you can quickly navigate to the most important sections of the page. </p> <h3 class="h4 mt-4">Alternative content</h3> <p class="mt-0"> For visitors using screen reader or speech browser software, we've provided sensible alternative text for images where this alternative text will aid your understanding of the web page. </p> <h3 class="h4 mt-4">Headers</h3> <p class="mt-0"> Our pages use structured headers to aid legibility. The first header on the page is the main content header followed by any appropriate sub-headers. </p> <h3 class="h4 mt-4">Tables</h3> <p class="mt-0"> We are no longer using tables, except for the display of tabular data. For users of screen readers and speech browsers, we associate headers with their respective rows and columns to aid legibility. </p> <h3 class="h4 mt-4">Forms</h3> <p class="mt-0"> Forms now have their labels explicitly associated with their controls, aiding users of certain screen readers and speech browsers. </p> <h3 class="h4 mt-4">Text to speech</h3> <p class="mt-0">Tested with users using Read&Write literacy software.</p> <h3 class="h4 mt-4">Magnification and Reflow</h3> <p class="mt-0"> Except for captions and images of text, text can be resized without assistive technology up to 200 percent without loss of content or functionality. </p> <p class="mt-4"> Depending on your screen size and resolution, most content can be magnified up to 400% without spilling off the edge of the screen. Technically, this means content is presented without loss of information or functionality, and without requiring scrolling in two dimensions for: (i) Vertical scrolling content at a width equivalent to 320 CSS pixels, and; (ii) Horizontal scrolling content at a height equivalent to 256 CSS pixels. However, this does not apply to parts of the content which require two-dimensional layout for usage or meaning. </p> <h2 class="mb-3 mt-5">Relevant information for particular user groups</h2> <h3 class="h4">Information for blind users</h3> <p class="mt-0">We have tested our interface and content with the following screen reader/browser combinations:</p> <ul> <li>NVDA and Google Chrome</li> </ul> <p class="mt-0">Keyboard operability have all been tested manually.</p> <h3 class="h4 mt-4">Information for Low Vision Users</h3> <p class="mt-0"> Emerald Insight’s interface has a responsive design that allows users with vision impairments to zoom in up to 400% without loss of functionality. It also enables reflow. You can do this through browser Zoom (CTRL Plus) and changing default text size. Between the two you can often get higher magnification without usability issues. </p> <p class="mt-2"> Minimum colour contrasts, as specified in WCAG 2.1, are applied. Colour contrast has been tested manually. The platform has been tested manually in all browsers with the ZoomText screen magnifier. </p> <p class="mt-2"> The formats which provide the optimum reading interface for low vision users are EPUB for books and HTML for all other forms of content. </p> <h3 class="h4 mt-4">Information for Colour Vision-Impaired Users</h3> <p class="mt-0"> Minimum colour contrasts, as specified in WCAG 2.1, are applied. Colour contrast has been tested manually in all browsers. Information is not conveyed solely by colour differences alone; alternative signifiers are included. </p> <p class="mt-0"> Browser plugins and EPub readers can be used for different colour contrasts. PDF also has a wide range of background colour alternatives. </p> <h3 class="h4 mt-4">Information for users with vision who rely on the keyboard</h3> <p class="mt-0"> The TAB key can be used to navigate through links within the site menu and the main text of each page. Once a link has been highlighted, use the ENTER key to activate the link. The current link the tab is focused on is shown by an accessibility compliant colour highlight. </p> <h3 class="h4 mt-4">Information for Users with Dyslexia</h3> <p class="mt-0"> Emerald Insight interface uses museo and open sans fonts which are regarded to work well for dyslexic users. Emerald Insight interface has been tested with users and has been shown to work well with text-to-speech tools. “Books are available in EPUB. Most EPUB readers such as Thorium (for Windows) or ReadEra (Android) allow users to : </p> <ul> <li>Select from a range of fonts, </li> <li>Change line spacing or word spacing,</li> <li>Change background colours,</li> </ul> <p class="mt-0">Work with text to speech tools.” </p> <h3 class="h4 mt-4">Information for Hearing Impaired Users</h3> <p class="mt-0">Emerald Insight does not contain audio or video content.</p> <h2 class="mb-3 mt-5">Alternative book content</h2> <p> Our platform currently offers most books content in EPub, HTML and PDF formats.
