Early Modern World Students as Citizen Archivists


Students in History of the Renaissance and Early Modern World have the opportunity to provide an original transcription of a handwritten text that is part of the National Archives, working as a volunteer Citizen Archivist. Students may select any document they wish from our course’s time period (roughly 1450-1825), transcribe, and analyze it. By doing so, they not only make an original contribution to historical knowledge, but they also volunteer their time and talents to the grand project of making history more accessible.
