Transcribe a page

Join Doc’s Virtual Research Team

Adopt a page from Doc’s research notebooks by typing in what you see. All 3,000 of Doc’s pages are hand-written and contain a bundle of interesting information for scientist and novice alike.

Do you have 5-10 minutes? Transcribe a page and you will be contributing to research on the history of science and technology. By making available the hand-written text and images available on the web, we are sharing a part of our human endeavor. However, the until the text is machine-readable, we cannot search it. Once these texts are fully searchable, scholars may discover connections among documents that were previously unknown. Your time in transcribing a page will be immensely helpful in making this archive available to researchers, K-12 educational endeavors, and the general public.

Thank you in advance for taking the time to further this research archive.
