This address issues 486 and 465. @JohnBrugge@benetech.orgr

submitted 486, which were excellent edits in many places.

@mweiler@wlu.ca Mark submitted 465, which adds libraries to the list of who should use these guidelines.

No changes were made to strings. Only the primary guidelines were changed.

Please take a look at this proposed change.

You suggested: Most accessibility metadata uses controlled vocabularies to allow it to be extracted and displayed uniformly across different publications and localized to different user interface languages. The one exception is the accessibility summary, which allows accessibility statements that are unique to a publication.

Because this is such a big change from 1 to 2, I think it is worth reiterating.

How about: This accessibility metadata uses controlled vocabularies to allow it to be extracted and displayed uniformly across different publications and localized to different user interface languages. The one exception is the accessibility summary, which allows accessibility statements that are unique to a publication and that adds information not covered by other metadata entries.

Sounds fine to me.
