Description
Because there's a single template to build all of the reference pages, the Library reference pages have the wrong left-nav option selected (Reference and not Libraries). Also, they can't have a custom message at the top of the page about the Javadoc. I think this requires digging into java-generate and rebuilding the Java classes.
In addition, the non-core Libraries from the Processing Foundation (Video and Sound) can't have a separate header message. They link to the Libraries Javadoc, but the code isn't there. Thinking about this more, we could probably build those Javadocs and add them while the rest are built.

Research direction
Start by examining the shared reference-page template and the java-generate entry point mentioned in the issue, then trace how the Java classes are rebuilt. Done means Library pages select Libraries in the left navigation, support custom Javadoc messages, and the Video and Sound pages handle their Javadoc links or generated Javadocs as intended.
