We are extremely sorry to report that the Transcription Desk is currently experiencing a very prolonged period of downtime.

The service went down on Monday morning at around 11 am BST, and normal functionality is yet to be restored.

UCL’s Research Computing team are looking into the issue and have rebooted the server on which Transcribe Bentham is hosted, but an effective fix has still yet to be found.

We are hoping to get everything back up and running as soon as possible, though we do not as yet know when things will be back to normal.

Please accept our sincerest apologies for the inconvenience caused
