The Access App team was a diverse consortium of museums and cultural organizations, under the leadership of some of the most experienced education, interpretation, accessibility and technology professionals in the field. A special thank you also goes out to the Perkins School for the Blind, who gave us invaluable advice and support over the years, particularly Kim Charlson and Jim Denham.

Over the course of the three year project, some of the core team remained the same whilst others contributed and then moved on to other jobs and projects. The following lists everybody significantly involved at some point in the collaboration.
