Accessibility Statement
Last updated January 2026
NetterReference.com is committed to continuous improvement in accessibility and aligns with broader Elsevier goals and evolving standards. This includes meeting or exceeding the W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at Level AA and requirements of the European Accessibility Act (EAA) and Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Key areas of focus include keyboard navigation, responsive design, and improved contrast on text and buttons. Alt-text has been implemented; however, we continue to explore best practices for heavily labeled anatomical images. Recent keyboard tabbing improvements help provide a logical reading order; however navigation of popup menus for individual labels continues to be a challenge. The launch of the 9th edition Netter Atlas of Human Anatomy will be a phased approach with functionality similar to the current 8th edition available in July 2026 plus the addition of ADA-compliant videos and 3D models. In Fall, 2026, additional accessibility improvements, like an optional “mini-map” to help endusers orient a highly zoomed image is planned. A Voluntary Product Accessibility Template (VPAT) is available for the 8th edition: Netter Atlas 8e VPAT - March 2024. An updated VPAT is planned for the 9th edition.
Netter products are very visual, and we look forward to implementing alternative methods to convey this information as technology allows.
