Transcribe-A-Thon

Date: Oct 4, 2022 at 6:00pm to 7:30pm
Join the Transcription Center for the Smithsonian as a digital volunteer! "Founded in 2013, the Smithsonian Transcription Center is a website inviting the public to collaboratively transcribe, review, and explore, digitized Smithsonian collections. This work makes our historic materials more readable, accessible, and text-searchable across our online databases and other major search engines." Volunteers must make a volunteer account with the Smithsonian. This event will include a short introduction to what transcribing is and how to transcribe and review. Volunteers must bring their own device to transcribe on, and will complete their transcribing and reviewing independently (in the presence of ur bros though) :) opic: Madison Rader's Zoom Meeting Time: Oct 4, 2022 06:00 PM Eastern Time (US and Canada) Join Zoom Meeting https://osu.zoom.us/j/92899604781?pwd=OHFJb3dzM1pPRUJQWDRTck81ZnJUZz09 Meeting ID: 928 9960 4781 Password: 303953 For more information, check out the website at https://transcription.si.edu/
