Non-accessible content
Page refreshes or redirects
Some pages are set to automatically change location or refresh using a meta tag. For example, the Login and eLibrary pages. Pages that automatically change location or refresh pose significant usability issues, particularly for screen reader and keyboard users. Reference 2.2.1 Timing Adjustable (Level A) and 2.2.2 Pause, Stop, Hide (Level A)
Multiple form labels
In some form the form control has more than one label associated with it. Form control should have at most one associated label element. If more than one label element is associated to the control, assistive technology may not read the appropriate label. Reference 1.1.1 Non-text Content (Level A),1.3.1 Info and Relationships (Level A), 2.4.6 Headings and Labels (Level AA) and 3.3.2 Labels or Instructions (Level A)
Contrast Errors

What we're doing to improve accessibility
We monitor accessibility using manual checks via WAVE by WebAim.org.
