This descriptive menu page is designed to meet the needs of blind screen reader users who are part of the North Central College and wider community. Menu items are listed as headings and followed by brief descriptions to make exploring the menu faster and easier with a screen reader. We have learned this design also benefits a wider group of users, such as users who search pages (control + f), users who prefer browsing, or users who are new to university libraries.
