Zotero and Accessibility

llevac
I'm a political scientist and community engaged scholar who works extensively with diverse community-based research teams. We use Zotero for 2 major interdisciplinary research projects, and are generally very pleased with how it works. However, we have noticed some limitations with regards to its accessibility for people with disabilities. I have noticed some basic discussion on the forum about compatibility with screen readers, and wanted to chime in to note that we are very eager to see Zotero become increasingly accessible so that it can facilitate ever-broader knowledge sharing. Please continue to work towards making Zotero more compatible with common screen reader programs. Thanks, Leah Levac

    FWIW, Zotero is currently hiring a product designer and lists knowledge of accessibility issues&technologies as one of four key qualifications:

    I don't think Zotero will be able to do a lot of accessibility testing any time soon, though, so reports of what does and what doesn't work are always welcome.
