A transcribe-a-thon is an event in which people gather in person or online to work simultaneously on a crowdsourcing project. We share cool finds and more on social media, connecting across all of our locations. Our main activity will be transcribing the words on a platform created by the Adler Planetarium called Zooniverse. We'll help transcribe all sorts of documents from the Colored Conventions, a long-running civil rights movement during the 1800s. No experience is needed. The platform is very beginner friendly!
