Proofers will check the work of the transcribers. They will be assigned a
folder of 100 online transcriptions. Both the record image and the
transcription will appear on the same page. Proofers will check to make sure
the transcribed information is correct, as well as make sure the document
matches the certificate number. Any discrepancies will be logged to an
online form. Proofers will also report any missing images or transcriptions.
Time commitment: Approximately 1-2 hours per 100 records.
Long-term commitment: None
Turnaround: It is requested that each folder be completed within one week.
Thank you for your interest in the project,
