Accessibility Statement

This accessibility statement applies to www.readex.eu (September 23rd, 2022). This website is run by Technische Universität Dresden, Center for Information Services and HPC (ZIH).

TU Dresden’s ZIH is committed to making its websites and mobile applications accessible, in accordance with “Website Accessibility Act” BfWebG (Barrierefreie-Websites-Gesetz) and the “Accessible IT Ordinance” BITV 2.0 (Barrierefreie-Informationstechnik-Verordnung), implementing EU Directive 2016/2102.

Preparation of this accessibility statement

This statement was prepared on September 23rd, 2022 and last reviewed on September, 11th 2023. The basis for issuing this accessibility statement is a self-assessment carried out by TU Dresden.

Compliance status

We have a very extensive and diverse web presence with a large number of documents and content. This was published before September 23rd, 2018 and therefore does not correspond to the current state of accessibility.

As the project has been finished since 09/2018, no further development work will be carried out on the website; moreover, no content will be updated or new content posted. The website or the content published on it is not part of an active administrative process, but serves only archival purposes.

This website is not compliant with the requirements of the BfWebG in conjunction with BITV 2.0. The non-compliances and/or exemptions are listed below.

Non-accessible content

  • The page can only be used to a limited extent on smaller displays, as the main navigation is missing.
  • In some cases, contrasts do not correspond to the required minimum contrast values.
  • Heading hierarchy is not correct in every case.
  • The position of the focus is not always clearly visible.
  • For pictures and graphics there are mostly no alternative texts available.
  • For embedded videos (via Youtube) there are only partly subtitles (created
