U.S. Citizen Archivists Can Help Transcribe Old Documents

Many, or perhaps most, U.S. genealogists are unaware of a program that helps the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) make contributions to the National Archives Catalog. However, YOU can help in this all-volunteer program to help unlock history.

The Citizen Archivist program invites citizen to transcribe historical documents, tag archival photographs, or share comments with other community members. You are invited to join in! Every contribution you make helps unlock history.

You can learn more and even sign up in the Citizen Archivist Dashboard at: https://www.archives.gov/citizen-archivist.
