Volunteer From Home
Thank you for your interest in volunteering to TRANSCRIBE!
If you are only willing to volunteer "from home" be sure you've chosen a census from our Volunteer From Home list. If it's not on this list you will have to access the census on microfilm.
| Please take a moment and review our Transcriber's Handbook before signing up. This handbook covers how to transcribe and answers many volunteer questions.
The requirements for volunteering are:
pre-1851* - access to microfilm
1851 - access to the images at Library & Archives Canada and/OR access to microfilm
1861* - access to microfilm
1871 - access to the images at Library & Archives Canada and/OR access to microfilm
1881 - access to the images at Library & Archives Canada and/OR access to microfilm
1891 - access to the images at Library & Archives Canada and/OR access to microfilm
1901 - access to the images at Library & Archives Canada and/OR access to microfilm
1911 - access to the images at Library & Archives Canada and/OR access to microfilm
*At times there are copies available. IF they are available this census will be listed on our Volunteer From Home page. If a census is NOT on that page, you will have to gain access to the census yourself.
Ready? Just fill out this form and our Volunteer Co-ordinator will contact you shortly.
 Are you a student? If so, you may be able to earn some of your community service volunteer hours by volunteering for the census project. Please use this form to sign up |
