Accessibility Provisions in the ACSLS GUI

  • Every page displayed in the content frame is identified with a title.

  • A text equivalent tool tip is provided for every graphical element in the GUI. A screen reader will make the alternative text available (using the mouse to hover over the respective graphical element will also show that tooltip).

  • All data tables displayed in the content frame are identified with column and row headers.

  • The expandable Navigation Tree can be configured to be fully expanded by default.

  • The Masthead includes color coded dashboard elements to indicate faulty status conditions. Color-blind users can look beside each status icon where any number higher than zero signifies the same message, while displaying how many library resources share the errant status.
