Learn How to Transcribe

Become a Smithsonian Digital Volunteer and help us make historical documents and biodiversity data more accessible.

Since June of 2013, our community of "volunpeers" have collaboratively transcribed and reviewed over a million pages of field notes, diaries, ledgers, logbooks, currency proof sheets, photo albums, manuscripts, biodiversity specimen labels, and historic audio recordings - Get started now!

Join the conversation online to partner on projects and ask your fellow #volunpeers for their best tips and tricks.

You'll also find updates and behind-the-scenes spotlights on Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube.
