Content that is not within the scope of the accessibility regulations

PDFs and other documents

As Bina Husada Repository is an open access research repository, the principal content made available to users are research outputs such as articles, papers, posters and reports, many of which are PDF documents. Many PDF documents, especially older ones, are not fully accessible to screen reader software and do not contain other common accessibility features. In particular:

• many documents, especially older ones, do not conform to the PDF/A archiving format.
• many lack bookmarks or document titles, therefore failing to meet WCAG 2.1 success criteria 2.4.5 and 2.4.2.
• many discuss scientific or scholarly concepts which may be abbreviated with no mechanism for discovering the meaning of the abbreviations, or unusual words arising from scholarly discourse without definitions. These issues each fail WCAG 2.1 criteria 3.1.4 and 3.1.1 respectively.
• there may be some documents that fail to specify their human language, thereby failing WCAG 2.1 success criterion 3.1.1.
• many documents may not reflow satisfactorily. This fails WCAG 2.1 success criterion 1.4.10.

The accessibility regulations do not require us to fix PDFs or other documents placed in Bina Husada Repository's archive before 23 September 2019 as these items are considered "archives".

PDFs and other documents added after 23 September 2019 may be user provided and therefore not fully accessible. Bina Husada Repository has a review process that should identify these before they are made available for download. If this is not the case please contact by email: info@binahusada.ac.id.

General issues

Areas of Bina Husada Repository which are not document-based demonstrate good levels of accessibility. However, the following issues have been identified and are in the process of being addressed:

• Headings on some of our pages do not appear in a logical order. This does not meet WCAG 2.1 success criterion 2.4.10.
• Some of the forms and interactive search pages on Bina Husada Repository are not appropriately labelled or do not have labels. This does not meet WCAG 2.1 success criterion 3.3.2.
• Interactive elements of Bina Husada Repository (such as search) do not utilise status messages to update screen readers of a change in state. This does not meet WCAG 2.1 success criterion 3.2.2.

How we tested Bina Husada Repository

Bina Husada Repository was last comprehensively tested on 4 June 2020. You can read the comprehensive report.

Based on testing a default publication flavour installation of EPrints using standard test data, all tested public-facing pages currently report no errors, contrast errors or alerts except where this is essential for the functioning of EPrints as on Open Access repository (i.e. links to PDF documents) or due to duplications in the test data leading to alerts about shared alternative texts for nearby images. It should be noted that although Chromium's WAVE extension does not report any contrast errors for public-facing pages Firefox's does but the former was used for testing. Firefox's contrast errors are due to its default settings for the background colour of select boxes.

Many non-public administration pages do have significant numbers of errors or alerts. This will be addressed by the release of EPrints 3.4.3 if not EPrints 3.4.2. Typically where very large number of errors or alerts exist on a page, the majority are the same issue generated by a programmatic layout of information, (e.g. if one search result has an issue, the remainder of search results on that page are likely to have the same issue). This means it is likely only a small number of changes should be necessary to eliminate a significant number of these issues.

Miscellaneous pages like those for OAI metadata harvesting have been tested and found to have issues but are being considered low priority, as they are not generally intended for human use.
