As we mentioned in last week’s update, UCL closes for the Easter break on Wednesday 1 April until Wednesday 8 April, and so the next progress update will be issued on Monday 13 April. We will be unable to check transcripts during the closure period, and it may take us longer than usual to respond to emails during that time. Please do accept our apologies for any inconvenience which this may cause.
Thank you, as ever, to all who have contributed to Transcribe Bentham during the last seven days. It remains hugely appreciated by us all.
