Every learner reads.

Our commitment

A target and a practice, not a badge.

We target WCAG 2.2 Level AA, which includes everything in 2.1 AA, across the site, the Librola Reader, the games and the activities. That is a target and a statement of practice — not a certification. We have not been audited by a third party, and we won't claim a badge we haven't earned. What we can do is tell you plainly what works today, what we are still fixing, and exactly whom to write when something is in your way.

Current state

What works today

• The Librola Reader works with screen readers and refreshable Braille displays — reading is the product, so this came first.
• Picture mode shows the illustrated page for readers who need or prefer it.
• Recorded narration plays sentence by sentence, with adjustable speed, at a learner's pace.
• The site and reader are keyboard-navigable: a skip link on every page with a menu, visible focus, and a logical focus order.
• A teacher can mark any student as a screen-reader user on the class roster. Librola’s own voices then wait for that student to press play — in the library, the books, the games and the training, on any device they sign in on — so they never talk over the screen reader.
• Support mode has settings for a blind student: answer by touch, by listening first (one press hears an answer, a second press chooses it) or with two switches, and Librola’s voice off so the screen reader leads.
• The pictures in Librola’s books carry written descriptions, which a screen reader reads in place of the picture. In Support mode, a “What’s in the picture?” button gives the description whenever the student asks.
• Every printable book can also be saved as a braille file (.brf) for a school’s braille embosser, in Unified English Braille or Spanish braille, or as text for braille software.
• Librola's pages carry no ad scripts and no tracking code of our own, and most pages use fonts from Librola's own server. The book readers and a few activity pages still load fonts from Google Fonts or page code from unpkg.com; those services see a device's internet address, never a student's name. We are moving them onto Librola's own server.
• Students sign in with your class code and either their school Google account or a first name, last initial and 3 pictures. Librola keeps that short name, their 3 pictures (or, with Google, an account number from Google), when they were last on Librola, and what they read and played. Never an email, photo or birthday.

Known gaps

What we are still fixing

In October 2026 we went through every part of Librola — the site, the readers, the games, the puzzles and the teacher pages — against WCAG 2.2 AA, by keyboard and through what the browser tells a screen reader, and fixed what we found. This is what is still on our list, and we would rather show you an honest list than a spotless one.

• Some picture descriptions do not yet match their picture closely enough, and the words drawn inside a few pictures (comic speech bubbles, signs) are not yet in the text. We are checking every picture.
• A few of the CirclingLab lesson games run on a timer.
• The printable worksheets are made for paper (circle, cut, colour). Braille and tactile versions of them are not ready yet; the books themselves already print in braille.
• Those checks used the browser’s own accessibility information and automated tests, not yet the screen readers and braille displays themselves, so reports from people who use them are especially welcome.

Feedback

Tell us what's in your way.

If a key doesn't reach a control, a label your screen reader skips, or a game won't play fairly for one of your students, write from the Help page or to hello@librola.com. Librola is small on purpose — the person who hears about it is the person who builds the platform.

This statement reflects the state of Librola in October 2026. We will update it as the audit progresses.
