Transcribe for Museums
DigiVol volunteers turn museum treasures - specimen labels, field diaries, and expedition notes - into text that scientists can search and study. You choose an expedition, read the images, and type what you see, with clear guidance throughout. It opens up natural-history collections from Australia and beyond, all from your keyboard.

“Loved this one — the organizer had everything set up before we arrived and explained exactly what we'd be doing. It ran about 30 minutes long, which caught a few of us off guard, so plan for that. Would definitely come back.”
💡 Bring closed-toe shoes and a water bottle — it gets warm.
