Would you like to transcribe?


If you would like to contribute to the transcribing effort that the Royal British Columbia Museum is undertaking, then you should go to http://transcribe.royalbcmuseum.bc.ca/

The project is called First World War Letters, Diaries and Scrapbooks, and it covers letters, diaries and scrapbooks from the First World War.

The transcriptions you create will become searchable data, facilitating learning and research around the world. Whether you choose to transcribe one page, one hundred pages, or just browse our collections, you’re helping us share the stories that matter.

There is a Transcription Tips on the page that you should read, as well as
over 12 projects you can choose from to transcribe.
