Hi, With EPUB 3, the metadata for a cover includes an image title and author. A blind person would not be able to get information about the cover in the Reading Systems bookshelf. In our fundamental test book, we have included as the first page information about the cover image. I have attached it here, and it is in the draft version of this title at: http://dl.daisy.org/epub30-test-0300-20181129.epub We are fairly confident that any Reading System would not have a problem with this approach. Is this something to consider as a best practice? Best George George Kerscher Ph.D. -In our Information Age, access to information is a fundamental human right.
