This site was made possible by the critical assistance of several people. Chris Gelino and Davy Kirkpatrick have provided a wonderful resource with DwarfArchives.org, from which most of the table information is derived. Kelle Cruz, Sandy Leggett, Dagny Looper, Kevin Luhman and Scott Sheppard have contributed published spectra to the archive.

Kelle Cruz, Michael Cushing, Trent Dupuy, Chris Gelino, Davy Kirkpatrick, Mike Liu, Geoff Matthews, and Mark Pitts have all provided extremely helpful comments to help improve the site.

All of the data have been reduced using the very efficient and easy-to-use SpeXtool data reduction package developed by Michael Cushing and William Vacca. Thanks go to the telescope operators at IRTF - Bill Golisch, Dave Griep, Paul Sears and Eric Volquardsen - who assisted with every observation.

And finally, a big hana hou! to John Rayner, Alan Tokunaga and the rest of the staff in the IfA instrument lab for developing this incredible astronomical tool!
