Transcription Mornings

Help us transcribe historical materials from the NHA manuscript collection!

Join us for drop-in transcription mornings for an opportunity to get started with or continue working on transcription projects in a social environment as part of the NHA’s Volunteer Transcription Project. Research Associate Peggi Godwin will be on hand to help with any questions, from signing up on From the Page to untangling a tricky word.

Transcribers can stop in for any length of time during the session.

REMEMBER to bring your own laptop or tabet to use.


Get started with these steps!

2. Take a look at our From the Page transcription projects.


3. Review our transcription guidelines. It’s easy!


4. Start transcribing!
