+ Presenting READ at the next International Medieval Congress!
We are excited to report that the READ project will be presenting a panel at the next International Medieval Congress at the University of Leeds in July 2017.
READ partners from Zurich State Archives, National Archives Finland and Passau Diocesan Archives will be demonstrating how they have been working with Handwritten Text Recognition technology to transcribe and search their document collections.
This a great opportunity to showcase the possibilities of Handwritten Text Recognition to medievalists – over 2000 of them gather in Leeds every year for this conference!
