Using Google news with Jaws
Google offers a way to search news headlines from news organization’s web pages
While a good resource, the site may be daunting for some new Jaws users
Here is an easier way to navigate the site
First press Control O to open the address window
Type www.google.com
Instead of using the search field, press Insert F7 to bring up the links list
Press N for News
When you reach the News link press Enter
A site will open with around 400 links
There are easier ways to navigate the site than having Jaws read it all the way through
Press Insert F6 to bring up the Headings List
The first Heading will be Top Stories Level 2
The heading below that is another Level 2 Heading
That Level 2 Heading will be the first news headline of the Google News site
There will be several Level Two Headings below that are also news headlines
When you find one you want to read press Enter
These headings are also clickable links
After pressing Enter from the Headings List Jaws will repeat the headline, saying: The Headline Heading Level 2 Link
Since it is a link, you can press the space bar to select it.
Unfortunately, many news pages are complicated, containing many graphics, ads, banners etc.
This makes it confusing for Jaws users to read them
There is a trick
Many of these websites have an option for a Printable Version
These versions are available for sighted users to call up a window with plane text and little, if any, unrelated content.
This allows sighted users to print the page without the unrelated content
It also gives an unintended aid to Jaws users to read the story
Press Insert F7 to bring up the Links List
Then try pressing P
The link you are looking for should say something along the lines of Printable Version or Print this Page
This brings up a new window with a clean copy of the story a Jaws user can read normally
Press Insert Down Arrow to begin reading the story
Or, press P to read the story paragraph by paragraph
This is a user driven blog managed by volunteers and staff of the Adaptive Services Division of the DC Public Library meant to provide helpful information to adaptive tech users.

Eighteen dedicated buttons allow you to instantly start ZoomText, change magnification levels, toggle screen enhancements, launch AppReader and DocReader, and more, all without having to memorize hotkeys. You can even reassign each feature key to your choice of ZoomText commands, Internet and multimedia commands, or to open an application, document or web page.

Keyboard purchased with ZoomText Upgrade or ESP* – $85
