Douglass Day Celebration to be held at HCC
Hagerstown Community College will hold a Douglass Day Celebration on Tuesday, February 14, from 11:30 a.m. to 3 p.m., in the Learning Resource Center, room 102.
Guests are invited to participate in a transcribe-a-thon, focused on the papers of Mary Ann Shadd Cary. Locations nationwide will hold simultaneous transcribe-a-thons to contribute to this year’s crowdsourcing project called “Transcribe Shadd Cary.” The main activity will be transcribing the words in a variety of documents (letters, diaries, certificates and postcards) to make them more accessible for researchers.
