Anne Lister Diaries Transcription Project

[olivermoss]

West Yorkshire Archive Service is starting an exciting transcription project of Anne Lister’s incredible diaries and are looking for volunteers to get involved ... The coded sections (what Anne called her crypt-hand) use a letter replacement code in which individual letters are replaced by symbols. A copy of the code can be found on the Reading Anne’s Diaries page of this exhibition along with guidance on seeing the diaries on our online catalogue.

Want to help make digital versions of Anne's writing available for reading and research? Here is a chance to help out.
