Transcription Update – 2 February to 1 March 2019

It’s time to update you all on the progress of transcription over the past month. As ever, a big thank you goes out to all of our volunteer transcribers for their efforts.

Here are the full statistics for the initiative – as of 1 March 2019.

21,609 manuscript pages have now been transcribed or partially-transcribed. Of these transcripts, 20,779 (96%) have been checked and approved by TB staff.

Over the past four weeks, volunteers have worked on a total of 158 manuscript pages. This means that an average of 40 pages have been transcribed each week during the past month.
