but not ideal in several ways), and improved accessibility is something Zotero actively pursues (it was e.g. explicit part of recent job searches).

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.

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

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

That's also something I was concerned about, but I think that having the same color-set within a group would be ok. If someone is having accessibility issues with the colors, they could ask the group

I think we could make some small tweaks — in terms of both differentiation and accessibility — but I'm not going to poll Twitter on the colors we use. (Also, as far as I know we've had zero complaints

You can extend the time that tooltips are displayed, though. Visit Tools -> Options -> Accessibility (under the Writer heading), and you'll see a widget in that pane for setting the time-to-display fo

no, sorry. Unfortunately groups--like collections--aren't really usable without drag&drop at this point. We're aware that causes accessibility issues.

It is my understanding that improved keyboard handling--not least for accessibility--is very much on the agenda.

Zotero 4.0.22 is now out with a fix for this issue. Let us know if there are other accessibility improvements that could be made.
