visually striking display of 30 aircraft which represent the story of British and Commonwealth aviation. The audio guide is not a mere adaptation of a mainstream guide and empowers blind and partially sighted people to visit AirSpace alongside their family and friends on equal terms.

Sustainability is central to the project: assistive technology is upgraded along with other public computer equipment, and staff and volunteers receive regular training. Following a presentation on the project to the Scottish Parliamentary Cross Party Group on Visual Impairment, Edinburgh Libraries are approaching other local authorities to develop a community of best practice. In addition to existing partnerships with organisations such as RNIB, Guide Dog Scotland, Deaf Action and Share the Vision, Edinburgh Libraries are putting partnerships in place with other national and local agencies and the voluntary sector in order to expand the reach of the project to people with sensory loss.

In 2010, at an early phase of the museum’s creation, the decision was made to embrace an inclusive design methodology across all aspects of the museological practice. In terms of exhibitions, we saw inclusive design and accessibility as drivers of
- innovation. We wanted every aspect of the in-gallery
experience to be as rich and usable as possible, for the widest audience possible. Embracing this approach, we’ve not only realized innovation in the museum field, but most importantly, we’ve managed to realize a deeply layered, experiential offer that is meaningful for all visitors. And our work continues.
