Accessibility statement

We regard accessibility as an inseparable part of the product. A site offering a device whose whole purpose is to put the Jewish bookshelf within everyone's reach must itself be reachable by everyone — and this site was designed that way from day one.

Conformance level

The site was built to conform to Israeli Standard 5568 at level AA, which is based on the W3C WCAG 2.0 guidelines, and was also checked against WCAG 2.1 level AA. The site is served fully in Hebrew and in English, with correct text direction and language marking on every page.

What was implemented

  • Full keyboard navigation, with a "skip to content" link at the top of every page and a clear, visible focus indicator.
  • A hierarchical heading structure and landmarks on every page.
  • Alternative text for every informative image; decorative images are hidden from screen readers.
  • Contrast ratios of at least 4.5:1 for text — the palette was computed and documented combination by combination in the site's code.
  • Labels attached to every form field, and error messages in explicit text — never by color alone.
  • Pages are built with relative units, so enlarging the text up to 200% does not break them.
  • The prefers-reduced-motion preference is honored — visitors who asked for less motion get the site without animations.
  • The demo video does not autoplay.

Known limitations

The demo video does not yet have captions; a transcript and captions in Hebrew and English are in preparation. Until then, all the essential information in the video also appears as text on the site's pages. Found another difficulty? Please tell us and we will fix it.
