Latest News: Lomax Transcription Effort Announced
You are subscribed to Latest News from the Library of Congress.
From hot summer days in Mississippi to windy nights in the Caribbean,
the Library of Congress’ latest crowdsourcing campaign, launched today,
challenges virtual volunteers to explore folk and music traditions
through the eyes and writings of one of America’s most famous 20th
century folklorists, musicologists and oral historians: Alan Lomax. The
new campaign — “The Man who Recorded the World: On the Road with Alan
Lomax” on the Library’s crowdsourcing platform By the People — asks the
public to help transcribe over 10,000 pages of field notes, letters and
diaries from the American Folklife Center’s Alan Lomax Collection.
