Usable Navigation
We aim to provide clear navigation, readable page structures, and understandable links and controls.
Understandable Information
We seek to organize information using clear headings, descriptive labels, and consistent page structures.
Compatible Technology

Accessible Research and Publishing Resources
IARP aims to improve the accessibility of its online scholarly content through clear page structures, readable typography, descriptive links, appropriate headings, and accessible digital publishing practices.
Authors are also encouraged to consider accessibility when preparing manuscripts, figures, tables, supplementary files, and other materials for publication.
Accessibility for Authors
Authors can contribute to accessible scholarly communication by preparing digital content carefully and providing meaningful descriptions where appropriate.
Clear Structure
Use meaningful headings, sections, captions, and logical organization.
Descriptive Figures
Provide informative captions and, where appropriate, alternative descriptions for important visual content.
Accessible Tables
Structure tables clearly and ensure that important information is understandable without relying solely on visual presentation.
Report an Accessibility Barrier
