What is Alternative Text (Alt Text) and how do I write good Alt Text?

Elsevier consistently and proactively endeavors to make our products fully accessible to all Users, regardless of physical abilities.

Alternative text (alt text) is a brief description of an image, figure, or other visual element designed to help people with visual impairments or those using assistive technologies, like screen readers, to understand the image's content.

In Elsa, you do not need to add an alt text caption. It will be completed by Elsevier, and you will have an opportunity to review it in the project proofs.
