Transcribing Historical Documents

ORGANIZATION: ARMENIAN CULTURAL ASSOCIATION OF AMERICA INC

  • 8 people are interested

The Armenians of Whitinsville Project (www.armeniansofwhitinsville.org) has been collecting documents and we need a hand typing a few pdf documents into word. This is a community history archive that speaks to what it was like to grow up in town, what the community was like and how Armenian identity has changed over the last 100 years or so.

The person doing the transcribing would be working with organizers of the project, and get a sense for what goes into building out an archival community website.
