Accessibility
This page describes the accessibility features of the journal website and how to tell us about a problem.
Our approach
IJVBS aims to make its published research usable by as many readers as possible, including readers who use screen readers, keyboard navigation or magnification. The site is built following widely accepted web accessibility practices.
Features of this site
- Semantic headings and landmarks so that content can be navigated by structure.
- A skip-to-content link at the start of every page.
- Full keyboard access to navigation, menus, accordions and forms, with visible focus outlines.
- Descriptive text alternatives for meaningful images; decorative images are hidden from assistive technology.
- Form fields with visible labels, and validation messages that are conveyed in text rather than by colour alone.
- Reduced motion: animations are minimised automatically when your device requests reduced motion.
- Text that reflows without horizontal scrolling down to small mobile screen widths.
Known limitations
Article PDFs supplied by authors may not always meet the same accessibility standards as the website itself. If you need an accessible version of any published article, please contact the editorial office and we will do our best to provide one.
