As well as new catalogue information we are also regularly adding other content to our online catalogue such as full transcripts of Anne Listers Diaries as part of an ongoing remote volunteer project run by the Calderdale Office.
Diary 23 [SH:7/ML/E/23] and Diary 24 [SH:7/ML/E/24] are the latest diaries to be transcribed.
Transcriptions are now available for all of Anne’s diaries covering the years 1806 to 11 Aug 1840. A total of 5,632.524 words have been transcribed. The project is ongoing with the transcriptions of Anne Lister’s travel journals still to be released.
We also have an online digital webpage to showcase some of our digital collections.
