The Team
Credits
The project was initiated by Dr. Mia Ridge when Alex Mendes, original developer of the LibCrowds Convert-a-card project, joined the Library's Digital Scholarship team as a research software engineer. We are grateful to Christian Algar from the Library's Printed Heritage department for curatorial input. Our thanks also go to the Printed Heritage, Metadata Services, BL Labs, and Universal Viewer project teams.
Since then, we have moved the project to the Zooniverse platform, working with Dr Samantha Blickhan and Dr Jim O'Donnell at Zooniverse and Christian Algar and Dr Filipe Bento at the British Library. We'd like to thank the following people for their comments and feedback during this process: Philippa Marks, Jennifer Hillyard, Ben W Brumfield, Jo Pugh, John Herridge.
Last, but absolutely not least - we are incredibly grateful to every single volunteer who's help spread the word or contributed to the project, whether once or tens of thousands of times. Thank you all!
