Scholar Sidekick aims to be usable by as many people as possible across both account-free and optional account-based features, including users with disabilities. Accessibility is treated as an ongoing responsibility rather than a one-time checklist.
We aim to design and maintain Scholar Sidekick in line with widely accepted accessibility best practices, including the principles of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG).
In practice, this means we focus on:
We use a combination of automated checks and manual review, including:
Accessibility testing is performed regularly, particularly when core functionality changes.
Because Scholar Sidekick is a small, evolving service, there may be areas where accessibility can be improved. Examples may include:
We treat identified issues as bugs and aim to address them when they are discovered.
If you encounter any accessibility barriers while using Scholar Sidekick, we want to hear about them.

We take accessibility feedback seriously and will do our best to respond promptly.
Accessibility work is iterative. As the service evolves, we aim to continue improving accessibility alongside new features and fixes.
