Accessibility Statement
Literary Treasures is committed to making our website as accessible and easy to use as reasonably possible for all visitors, including people with disabilities.
We want everyone to be able to explore our collection of antiquarian books, find information about our books and services, and make purchases with confidence.
Our approach to accessibility
We aim to make our website accessible by following recognised accessibility good practice, including the principles set out in the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2.
WCAG 2.2 is an internationally recognised standard developed by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) to help make websites and digital content more accessible to people with a wide range of disabilities.
We continue to review our website and make improvements where reasonably possible.
Accessibility features
We aim to provide:
-
Clear and consistent navigation throughout the website.
-
Text that is presented in a clear and readable manner.
-
Appropriate alternative text for images where this is useful or necessary to convey information.
-
Sufficient contrast between text and backgrounds where reasonably possible.
-
Content that can be accessed using standard keyboard navigation and commonly used assistive technologies, where supported by the website platform.
-
A website that is usable across different screen sizes and devices, including desktop computers, tablets and mobile phones.
-
Clear headings, links and page structures to help visitors find information more easily.
-
Product information and descriptions presented as clearly and consistently as possible.
Our ongoing commitment
Accessibility is an ongoing process. We recognise that no website is necessarily accessible to every person or every assistive technology, and that accessibility can be affected by the technology and services used to operate an online shop.
Our website is built using the Wix platform, and we use the accessibility tools and features available to us within that platform. We also aim to identify and address accessibility issues as they become known to us.
As our website, content and technology develop, we will continue to review and improve accessibility where reasonably possible.
Accessibility of our books and images
As an antiquarian bookseller, many of the items we offer are historical books and printed materials. Product photographs are an important part of our listings and are used to show the appearance, condition and features of individual books.
Where an image conveys important information that is not otherwise included in the written description, we aim to provide appropriate accompanying text. We also aim to describe significant condition features, inscriptions, illustrations and other relevant characteristics within our product descriptions.
Because our stock consists of individual and often unique antiquarian items, the accessibility of images and historical printed material may vary from one item to another.
If you require additional information about a particular book or would benefit from information being provided in another format, please contact us and we will do our best to assist where reasonably possible.
