Students got to transcribe letters from one of America's greatest leaders, Frederick Douglass, at the UTA Central Library on Wednesday as part of Douglass Day's national event. View the Flickr photo album from the event at bit.ly/3T1tuiV. #DouglassDay

Rowan University students took part in the Douglass Day's "transcribe-a-thon" this week to make abolitionist Frederick Douglass' letters, notes and other papers searchable and more accessible. It all happened on the day Douglass chose as his birthday.cbsnews.com/philadelphia/n…

Yesterday, two dozen students, staff, & faculty celebrated #BlackHistoryMonth by participating in the annual #DouglassDay Transcribathon. This year, the General Correspondence series of the Frederick Douglass Papers, held by the Library of Congress, was selected for transcription.

My class showed up and off yesterday for Douglass Day 2024 at Penn State. #WeAre #BlackHistory

Unbelievable progress on the Frederick Douglass letters launched for #DouglassDay! In 2 days volunteers started transcription on 8,200 pages of which 1,400 are complete. We still need help with review! 5,000+ pages could use your eyes -- jump in: crowd.loc.gov/campaigns/trul…

Hey look! People we know in the news!!

As Douglass Day official events wind down, there's still plenty of transcribing & reviewing to do. Why not take a few minutes to enjoy our popular Douglass Day mix tape (open.spotify.com/playlist/2XWu7…) and then hop back over to crowd.loc.gov?

Though he did not know his true birthdate, Frederick Douglass chose February 14th in honor of his mother, who called him her "Little Valentine". Thank you to everyone who joined us last week for Douglass Day! 💕 We hope to see you all at next year's celebration! #DouglassDay

You know we love to see Mary Church Terrell getting her due! When we revived Douglass Day in 2017, we drew on her early visions for celebrations of Black history in schools and in communities. You can even hear her talk about that work on audio! transcription.si.edu/articles/origi…
