Oberlin College Libraries will celebrate Frederick Douglass’ birthday by participating in the Douglass Day Transcribe-a-thon event. You can drop in for as long (or as little) as you like.

Watch this space for additional information as we gear up for this collective act of radical love for Black history!

And if you've never done any transcription before, it’s okay! No experience is necessary, and online tutorials are available to help. So are your librarians!

Open to all members of the public
