The John-Roger Library and Archives (JRLA) is accepting new transcribing volunteers for the first time in several years.
This transcribing is loving service in support of:
- The John-Roger Legacy project. We are compiling the complete text of all of John-Roger’s seminars, Q&A’s, books, articles, and other writings for posterity, and for immediate use in workshops, IHOP-3 etc.
- John Morton’s writing projects.
SKILLS: Basic PC or Mac skills including (1) creating a new text document, (2) typing, (3) saving the transcript, (4) saving a backup copy of the transcript, and (5) emailing the transcript to the Library.
HOW MUCH TIME DO I GET? The guideline from J-R is to keep the energy moving toward completion. Every project starts with a 2-month due date. If you are making progress at your own pace, more time may be approved on a case-by-case basis.
WORK HABITS: Friendly, loving, can-do, and cooperative attitude; desire to be of service, love the Traveler’s teachings, able to keep agreements, and timely communications.
LOCATION: Volunteer in your own home
TECH SUPPORT: Some tech support is available. And each volunteer is also encouraged to take initiative & do their own problem solving with tech-savvy friends & family
People who are called to assist the J-R Library, and who have very good handwriting but no computer skills, may be approved to write transcripts out longhand. Then other volunteers will type them into the computer.
