Adaptable accessibility features for mathematics on the web

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contribution

Abstract

Accessibility of mathematics is still a challenging problem and providing the right level of support to a reader depends on many factors, such as their particular assistive technology needs, their level of expertise, and the subject area they are working in. We present work towards making math accessibility more adaptable to the reader's personal needs that is implemented in the MathJax library for rendering mathematics on the web. While MathJax provided accessibility support for several years, the new version 3 has both more new features and means of personalization. In particular, it provides adaptable combinations of highlighting, colorization, and magnification techniques.
