Hi Kim and Priyanka!
Good news! We are no longer seeing this bug in the latest version of Storyline 360 (Build 3.72.29699.0) where resource links aren't easily accessible when using the tab key and screen readers only read the first resource link.
To insure you don't continue to see this bug download the latest version of Storyline 360 via the Articulate 360 desktop app. Here's an article on how to do that.
Please let us know if you're still noticing the issue, and we'd love to continue troubleshooting with you in a support case.

Hi there, Kim. Thanks for reaching out! I did a quick test with both the classic and modern players to see how accessibility was working with the players. Here's what I found:
I had the same experience with the Menu. Once the Menu was opened and selected, I could highlight each slide with the arrow keys and use space bar to jump to those slides.
Thanks for bringing this behavior up! Can you check my links above (and yours!) and let me know if you see the same?
I'm going to document the Modern Player Resources issue so we can get to work on making sure that list is accessible.
Hi,
I am facing the similar issue with classic player resources tab. Jaws only reads the first item in and does not move to the next items with any of the key. i tried everything up and down arrow key, page up and down key, tab key, but it does not work.
Kindly suggest.
Regards,
Priyanka

Thanks for the quick response Leslie.
Nothing is working for me. Once I am in resource section and press tab again, I am pushed out from it. Arrow keys or alt+tab key does not work for me.
This is happening with Review 360 link and LMS package both.
