Accessibility ?

AdeleFitzgerald · December 17, 2015

Does anyone know if there is an accessibility statement for Zotero? We are exploring citation management options, and want to ensure that we consider accessibility options.

Thanks in advance.

Pretty sure there's no statement. There are a couple of posts on the forum here with user reports (which basically say feasible, especially with additional keyboard-related add-ons like Zutilo, but not ideal in several ways), and improved accessibility is something Zotero actively pursues (it was e.g. explicit part of recent job searches).

(and as an update to both of those threads -- the "Save to Zotero" icon is now accessible via keyboard shortcut in Firefox by default, so one of the biggest issues mentioned there has been solved)
