hello. i am using nvda screen reader and i am not familiar with other screen readers.
however, libreoffice since version 4.3, does not require java, java access briedge etc to support screen reader! for me who use nvda, Support assistive technology tools is checked for me by default. you can download nvda for free for this purpose. its opensource and you can donate to the project for its improvement. here you are the link for downloading the last version of it. i use libreoffice 5.3.4.1 32bit. https://www.nvaccess.org/files/nvda/releases/2017.3/nvda_2017.3.exe hope that help, God bless you and his infinite mercy i pray for you!
