ProQuest regularly checks for accessibility using a range of automated and manual checks, including but not limited to:

• Color Contrast Analyzer provided by WebAIM
• High Contrast Chrome extension
• 键盘访问手动测试和评估
• 自动化可访问性测试工具，例如Wave，AX或Microsoft可访问性见解
• Screen readers such as JAWS, NVDA, and VoiceOver
