At Knovel, we are dedicated to ensuring web accessibility by providing an optimized experience for individuals with disabilities, including auditory, cognitive, physical, speech, and visual impairments.
We strive to comply with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, established by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), as well as the U.S. Section 508 Standards of the Federal Rehabilitation Act. Additionally, we aim to meet similar accessibility standards implemented globally.
For a detailed overview of Knovel’s compliance with WCAG 2.1 and Section 508 criteria, please refer to our Voluntary Product Accessibility Template (VPAT).
