In computing, Accessibility Toolkit (ATK) refers in particular to the GNOME ATK.

The GNOME ATK, a developer toolkit, allows programmers to use common GNOME accessibility features in their applications. This includes such features as high-contrast visual themes for the visually impaired and keyboard behaviour modifiers (e.g. sticky keys) for those with diminished motor control.

[edit] Implementation

GAIL (the GNOME Accessibility Implementation Library) implements the accessibility interfaces defined by the GNOME Accessibility Toolkit (ATK).[1]
