As part of the London Seminar in Digital Text and Scholarship series, Professor Philip Schofield and Valerie Wallace will be talking about Transcribe Bentham, a project that uses crowd-sourcing techniques to encourage people outside academia to become part of the Bentham Project; reading and transcribing scans of original manuscripts which then become part of the digital archive.

Philip Schofield is Professor of the History of Legal and Political Thought at the UCL Faculty of Laws.

Valerie Wallace is a Research Associate at the UCL Bentham Project.
