Transcribe-a-thon: Remaking the World of Arturo Schomburg

Fisk University and the Schomburg Center have partnered to create a digital edition of the archival papers of Arturo Schomburg, the bibliophile who built two of the world’s most important collections on Black history—one in Harlem and another in Nashville. Join teams in each city to celebrate Schomburg’s 151st birthday by helping transcribe his newly digitized papers. We welcome all participants—no previous transcription experience necessary!

Registration required. Must bring your own laptop.
