Abstract

This case study describes creating a version of METS Navigator, a page-turning web application for multi- part digital objects, using an AJAX library with user interface (UI) components. This design created problems for customized user interactions and accessibility problems for users, including those using assistive technologies and mobile devices. A review of the literature considers AJAX, accessibility, and universal usability and possible steps to take moving forward to correct these problems in METS Navigator.
