Experiences with Publishers

De Gruyter: outsources its production process, and suppliers are not always familiar with accessibility requirements. Therefore it is important to check e-books to make sure they meet accessibility requirements.

Berghahn Books: Has begun asking authors to provide alt-texts for all images submitted.
