Hello. I recently noticed an issue with the Bookshare Web site and wonder if 
others are able to duplicate this issue.

I'm using NVDA 2018.2.1 with Firefox 52 ESR as my browser, running on Windows 
10. Using this combination to access the Advanced Search page on Bookshare.org 
I notice that labels for check boxes are rarely being announced. Specifically, 
if I press the tab key to navigate through the form I will, more often than 
not, hear "check box" followed by the control's current state of either 
"checked" or "not checked." If I press F to navigate to the next form element I 
will usually hear the same announcement, although sometimes labels are being 
announced. Has anybody else noticed this?
