Australians are being called upon to lend their expertise in deciphering cursive handwriting as part of a project by the Australian War Memorial.
Love letters and diaries authored by Australian ex-servicemen and women await transcription. The project relies on volunteers to unlock the narratives embedded in these historical documents.
To become a volunteer transcriber you need to sign up. This will allow you to transcribe, save your contributions, track your progress and join the volunteer community.
We are excited to share Transcribe, our new online transcription platform, has launched!
💌 Join us in transcribing thousands of love letters, diaries and documents sent from the front lines and help preserve Australia’s history.
