The checkboxes on an OPAC list page do not have aria-labels. This means that
users of screenreaders and other assistive technology are not informed of a
checkbox's purpose.

To reproduce issue:
1/ Open a list on the OPAC
2/ Inspect the checkbox for a list item and confirm that there isn't an
aria-label

As an extra optional step, use an accessibility checker - e.g. the WAVE
Accessibility evaluation tool (https://wave.webaim.org/extension/) or Tota11y
(https://khan.github.io/tota11y/) - to confirm that this is an accessibility
issue. 

Current code example:
<input type="checkbox" class="cb" name="biblionumber" value="114">

Solution example:
<input type="checkbox" class="cb" name="biblionumber" value="114"
aria-label="Select list item: Clean code :">

Bug 25244 fixed a similar issue for OPAC search results.
