In this lesson you
- Read where the whole library stands, in a sentence you can quote
- Saw who moves each open violation next
- Compared your site's sections, and took the figures with you

Your whole library, scored
The corpus assessment. When leadership asks how far along you are, and what it will take to finish, one percentage doesn't answer both. The Corpus Assessment does. It's the first tab in Reports, and it's built to be handed to anyone. It's also live. The line under the title gives the moment these figures describe, and they change as your team works. At the top is Compliance posture, the same status band as on Home. Five of the eight documents are compliant with WCAG 2.1 AA. They pass every check, with nothing left to confirm. Two have failed. Each has at least one confirmed violation, which the red dot marks. One needs review. Nothing in it has failed, but a person still has a decision to make, which the amber dot marks. Under the band, Proof puts this into a sentence you can quote in a memo. Three of the eight documents don't yet meet the accessibility bar under Section 508 and ADA Title II. Those are the two that failed and the one that needs review. Both block approval, so none of the three can be certified yet.
Who moves the rest
Knowing what's open is half the answer. The other half is who has to act, because that decides how long finishing takes. What stands open, and who owns it counts each open violation once, by who moves it next. Proof means the automatic pass clears it. Your reviewers means people on your team. Ockem means it waits on a prerequisite, such as a locked file. Here, one violation is a missing picture description. AI can draft it, for a reviewer to accept. Another needs a person to confirm it. Nothing clears automatically, and nothing waits on a prerequisite. So everything left sits with your reviewers.
Where the problems are
The next question is usually where the problems live. Exposure by site section answers it, folder by folder, the way your website is organized. Each row is one section. The columns count its documents that failed, need review, or are compliant. Newsletters hold the most open work. One has failed, and one needs review. Clinic notices has one failed, and two compliant. Patient information is fully compliant. That part of your site is done. Two more columns help you plan. Auto clear is the share of a section's documents the automatic pass can finish with no human input. Pages affected counts every page in the documents that failed or need review. It's a fair measure of the reading that's left. To see the documents behind a section, select its name. The Library opens on that folder.
What this report claims
Before you hand this report to anyone, know what it claims, and what it doesn't. At the bottom, Coverage and methodology says all eight documents were uploaded directly, and checked against WCAG 2.1 AA and PDF/UA-1, the standard for accessible PDF files. Under it, Scope of these checks says the report covers what a machine can verify. Criteria that need human judgment are counted as needs review, never as violations. And it says plainly that this is not a full conformance audit. That keeps the report honest with whoever reads it.
Take it with you
When you need the figures in a spreadsheet, for a board pack or your own tracking, there are two downloads. Per-document CSV has one row per document, with its status, its counts, and its address on your website. By section CSV has one row per folder, with the same counts as the section table. For a printed copy, choose Save as PDF. Because this page is live, its numbers can change after you send them. To send a copy that stays fixed, use Share assessment, which has its own lesson. Now you can say where your library stands, who has to act on what's left, and which parts of your site need attention first.
