Hanging Indent in Rise
Screen readers won't read any of that by default, and it's by design. You wouldn't want the screen reader always reading every single indent in every paragraph of an entire book, it would drive you mad.
In terms of universal design, why not include text at the beginning of the module or page that describes the hanging indent and that all citations in this module/page have a hanging indent? That would benefit all users.
There's also a way to do CSS that would read that information to a screen reader but not appear visibly. I'm not sure if it can be done within Rise or not, but here's that general information - https://webaim.org/techniques/css/invisiblecontent/
I agree Diana, and the hanging indent will change based on word count and screen size, its applied to wherever the first line wraps to the second line. Its not a real 'element' that would be noticed by a screen reader, its pure formatting.
