# Accessibility

The ScrollView is accessible by screen readers and provides full [WAI-ARIA accessibility](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Accessibility/ARIA) support.

## WAI-ARIA Support

The ScrollView is WAI ARIA-accessible through the `Tab` key. Once the component is focused, the user can navigate with the `Left Arrow` and `Right Arrow` keys. The **Next** and **Previous** buttons have ARIA-labels.
The active view has `aria-hidden` set to `false` and the rest, non-visible views have `aria-hidden` set to `true`.

The ScrollView also follows the [WAI-ARIA best practices](https://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria-practices/) for implementing the [keyboard navigation](https://www.telerik.com/kendo-react-ui-develop/components/scrollview/keyboard-navigation) for its component [role](https://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria#roles) and is tested against the popular screen readers.

## Section 508

The ScrollView is compliant with the [Section 508](https://www.section508.gov/) requirements.

## Limitations

The following issues are related to the WAI-ARIA support limitations of browsers and screen readers:

* Microsoft Edge works best with [Microsoft Narrator screen reader](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Narrator). For more information, refer to [issue 8571350](https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/platform/issues/8571350/).
