Bug Description

On the OPAC “Browse the catalog” page, the form inputs have visible labels, but the two aren't programmatically associated in a way a screen reader can interpret. The labels need for attributes matching the IDs of the input fields.

See Form Labels in the Evergreen accessibility developer's guide:
https://wiki.evergreen-ils.org/doku.php?id=accessibility:forms:labels

WCAG criteria:
2.5.3 Label in Name (Level A 2.1)
https://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG21/#label-in-name

This issue is noted in the 2023 OPAC Accessibility Conformance Report:
