What public institutions publish about how they govern accessibility, recorded from primary sources.
A public record, built entity by entity from each institution's own published material: who is accountable, how a person complains or reports a barrier, what standard the institution claims, how it provides effective communication and language access, how it buys technology, and what it says about testing, remediation, and its plan. The Record documents publication. It does not test conformance and it does not state whether any entity complies with any law.

Released entity profiles by state, class, and series, each at a permanent versioned URL, with the public channel block first and the Level computation shown.

The Procurement Accessibility Record: what a vendor publishes about a platform your institution deploys, criterion by criterion, with every flag's computation shown.
Read the method
Every rule the Record runs on, versioned and archived: the domains, the codes, the Level rubric, the evidence standard, and the notice and correction procedure.
Correct or comment
If you are named in the Record: the correction rule, the comment route in your own words, the two-step review, and the public corrections register.
Three sentences that appear on every page
Every profile carries the same three formulations, in the same words, because they are the boundary of what the Record claims. A reader who knows them can read any page correctly.
The Record answers one question about each institution: what can a member of the public find? Where nothing was found, the profile says so and lists the pages checked. Where a standard binds the institution but the institution has published nothing about it, the profile says that too, because obligations are not publication.
NONE FOUND is a statement about publication, not about practice.
A binding standard is not evidence of publication.
This record does not assess conformance and does not state whether any entity complies with any law.
The public channel first, then five domains
Every entity profile opens with the public channel block: the ADA or accessibility coordinator, the complaint or grievance route, and the barrier-report route, quoted as published with the URL, the route a reader takes to reach it, and the capture date, or the not-found sentence with the pages checked. Thirty indicators follow, in five domains.
Commitment and disclosure
What the institution states about its accessibility commitment, the standard it claims, its statement, and its scope.
Accountability and the public channel
Who is accountable, how a person complains, how a barrier is reported, and how findable each of those is.
Effective communication and language access
What is published about interpreters, captioning, relay, alternate formats, language access, and AI-mediated communication.
Procurement and vendor accountability
What is published about buying accessible technology, the platforms deployed, and vendor conformance reports.
Assurance and plan
What is published about testing, remediation, timelines, and the plan ahead of the compliance dates.
Each indicator is coded PUBLISHED, PARTIAL, NONE FOUND, NOT VERIFIABLE, NOT AUDITED, or OUT OF FRAME. From the codes a Level from 0 to 4 is computed by script against a published rubric: Silent, Stated, Reachable, Governed, Assured. The Level is a position on a rubric, not a grade, and the sentence stating what would raise it is mechanical and recommends nothing.
How the codes and Levels workFrom primary sources to a released profile
The full process →Declare and retrieve
Every person working on a profile declares any relationship with the entity before starting. The entity's own published material is retrieved and captured with the URL and the date. No automated accessibility scanner, ever.
Code and notice
Thirty indicators are coded against published sufficiency conditions and the Level is computed by script. The entity receives the draft through its own published accessibility route, with ten business days to point to anything the audit missed.
Release, comment, re-audit
A person runs the release checklist and the profile goes live at a permanent versioned URL. Comments are published beside the finding they concern, and re-audits follow the published calendar, never a surprise.
Releases, notice windows, and what is next
The register is the live state of every entity in frame. Nothing appears here that has not passed the release checklist, and every entity is noticed before release with a ten business day correction window.
As of 13 September 2026
The governance corpus is in force at version 1.0. The Minnesota pilot runs in two passes across the Title II series, with the private institutions in a separate Section 504 series, and no profile has been released. Live status and the latest releases render here from the register once the plugin is active.
The Procurement Accessibility Record
For the platforms the entities in the Record deploy, the Procurement Accessibility Record documents what vendors publish: whether an accessibility conformance report exists, its date, template, product version, standards, author, and method; every criterion's claimed level and remark parsed from the report's own tables; and flags such as report age, standard drift, and claim divergence, each with its computation shown.
There is no score, no Level, and no badge. Each platform in an entity profile links to its product record, so a reader moves from what the institution publishes to what its vendor publishes, and the two quotations sit side by side for the reader to judge.

The Record is one of three documentary instruments Novara Consulting Group LLC publishes, beside the SLAT Index, which evaluates sign language AI and AI interpreting technology, and the National Deaf Education Data Index, which documents Deaf education state by state. The publisher's own clients are profiled on the same terms as everyone else, with a disclosure block on every profile, and no payment alters a code. The independence rules, the funding page, and the method advisory group are on the About pages.
