<p>
</p>

<h2>Preparation of this accessibility statement</h2>
<p><b>This statement was prepared on 23rd September 2020. It was last reviewed on 12th December 2024.</b></p>
<p><b>The website was last tested on December 2024. The
testing was carried out by the Library
and University Collections Directorate which is part of Information
Services Group at the University of Edinburgh</b> using
both automated and manual methods. The site was tested on a PC,
primarily using Microsoft Edge alongside Mozilla Firefox and Google
Chrome.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Recent
world-wide usage levels survey for different screen readers and
browsers shows that Chrome, Mozilla Firefox and Microsoft Edge are
increasing in popularity and Google Chrome is now the favoured
browser for screen readers:</p>
<p>
</p>
<p><a href="https://webaim.org/projects/screenreadersurvey9/">WebAIM:
Screen Reader User Survey</a></p>
<p>
</p>
<p>The
aforementioned three browsers have been used in certain questions for
reasons of breadth and variety.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>We
ran automated testing using <a href="https://wave.webaim.org/">WAVE
WebAIM</a> and AXE and
then manual testing that included:</p>
<ul>
<li>Spell
check functionality;</li>
<li>Scaling
using different resolutions and reflow;</li>
<li>Options
to customise the interface (magnification, font, background colour,
etc);</li>
<li>Keyboard
navigation and keyboard traps;</li>
<li>Data
validation;</li>
<li>Warning
of links opening in new tab or window;</li>
<li>Information
conveyed in the colour or sound only;</li>
<li>Flashing,
moving or scrolling text;</li>
<li>Use
with screen reading software (for example JAWS);</li>
<li>Assistive
software (TextHelp Read and Write, Windows Magnifier, ZoomText,
Dragon Naturally Speaking, TalkBack and VoiceOver);</li>
<li>Tooltips
and text alternatives for any non-text content;</li>
<li>Time
limits;</li>
<li>Compatibility
with mobile accessibility functionality (Android and iOS).</li>
<li>Any
drag functionality and alternatives</li>
<li>Consistent
help function</li>
<li>No
