Web Accessibility

The design of HKU Libraries website has taken into account the capabilities and limitations of the most popular web browsers, and also the needs of people with disabilities.

Web Browsers

This website is best viewed in Internet Explorer 9.0 or above, Safari 6.0 or above, Chrome and Firefox browsers.

Font Size

Users can rescale the font size of this website with their browser’s re-scaling tool or the font size control tool “AAA” on the top of the webpage. This enables those with mild visual disabilities to read the website directly, without requiring the use of assistive technology such as a screen magnifier.

Colour Contrast

Users can choose to read a “High Contrast” version by selecting the option on the top of the webpage. This provides better contrast between the text and its background, so that it can be more easily read by those with moderately-low vision.
