+ Learn more about Transkribus in Zagreb
Join us for an event in the Croatian capital of Zagreb on Thursday 18th October.
The event is hosted by ICARUS Croatia and the Faculty of Philosophy at the University of Zagreb.
There will be a morning of lectures from READ project researchers based at the University of Innsbruck and University College London, which will explain the workings of Transkribus and the possibilities of Handwritten Text Recognition for different kinds of historical documents.
There are also limited spaces for a Transkribus workshop, where participants will be able to learn tips and tricks for working directly with the platform.
To enquire about attending the Zagreb event, please email Vlatka Lemić (vlemic@arhiv.hr).
