UWF Digital Collections Transcribathon - April 10, 2025

Thursday, April 10th, 11:00am - 1:00pm

Join us to transcribe handwritten letters from our digital collections for National Library Week! We will use the crowdsourcing transcription site From the Page to make first-hand accounts of history more accessible by creating searchable text for primary sources. Your collaboration will help researchers find unique primary sources related to Pensacola’s past, including pages from the Mallory Manuscripts, the log of the U.S. Frigate Sabina, and the Pensacola Navy Yard

Everyone is welcome! No transcribing experience necessary, but free registration with From the Page is required for participation. UWF librarians and archivists will be on hand to answer questions and provide technical assistance. For further details, contact Chris Levesque: clevesque@uwf.edu
