This page is continuously updated to reflect significant changes to the DAISY Accessible Publishing Knowledge Base. For a complete list of changes, refer to the project's GitHub commit history.

Changes are listed from most recent to oldest.

March 24, 2023 — pageBreakMarkers and pageNavigation accessibility features

The page describing the schema.org accessibilityFeature property now includes information on the pageBreakMarkers and pageNavigation values.

The pageBreakMarkers value replaces printPageNumbers as more and more publications are being created with static page locations that are not tied to a print source. The pageNavigation value enables publishers to now identify when a publication includes a page list that allows users to access the page break locations.

March 24, 2023 — pageBreakSource property

Information about the new pageBreakSource property is now available on the page navigation page. This property is currently being incubated as a replacement for using the dc:source and page-source properties.

November 8, 2022 — WCAG 2.2 Explainers

The WCAG explainers now reflect changes made as WCAG 2.2 transitioned from a working draft to a candidate recommendation. These include adding pages for Focus Not Obscured (Minimum) and Focus Not Obscured (Enhanced) success criteria and consolidating Focus Appearance to a single success criterion.

The pages for Visual Indicators and Page Break Navigation now include warnings that they will be removed from the KB as they were dropped from WCAG 2.2.

September 7, 2022 — Poetry

A new page is now available discussing techniques for marking up lines of verse using the capabilities that HTML offers.
