OneNote Documents hosted on SharePoint

If I take accessible OneNote documents, what accessibility barriers are in play if I host those documents on Microsoft SharePoint.

The goal is to be able to publicly share an internal document without generating a PDF of it.

Any information would be appreciated.

Subject: [WebAIM] User Research around the accessibility of components?

CAUTION: This email originated from outside of "Schoolcraft College"

Hello,

I just discovered this list and am sending a question for the first time so please forgive any lapses in list etiquette.

I'm hoping to find resources that provide user research-backed information about the accessibility of different web / UI / HTML components.

Some examples of what I mean by this can be found on gov.uk:

Here they discuss HTML text inputs and more specifically avoiding use of type="number". They further mention research on the subject at the bottom of the page <https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Ftechnology.blog.gov.uk%2F2020%2F02%2F24%2Fwhy-the-gov-uk-design-system-team-changed-the-input-type-for-numbers%2F&amp;data%7C01%7Cjkane%40schoolcraft.edu%7C3bf593f32e4049c0264508d96986c811%7C0b05de1b84dd4538acac1bc692325b03%7C0%7C0%7C637656849863915404%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&amp;sdata=p13iOCwkdEXWUNdYQhwKW6JEmH0ZSeOB11KGcA23X0s%3D&amp;reserved=0>

On this page discussing HTML select inputs, they link to a panel discussion on the accessibility issues surrounding said inputs <https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DCUkMCQR4TpY&amp;data%7C01%7Cjkane%40schoolcraft.edu%7C3bf593f32e4049c0264508d96986c811%7C0b05de1b84dd4538acac1bc692325b03%7C0%7C0%7C637656849863915404%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&amp;sdata=B%2FktuHKIdndfpKeWndy4DIs6PemzBSEyjQalkHhqQDQ%3D&amp;reserved=0>.

I'm curious if anyone knows of other resources that provide user research backed information like this? I'm trying to put together a list of resources to inform decisions around internal design systems we use where I work.
