Platform downtime scheduled on Wednesday November 20.
The Zooniverse platform will be offline for scheduled maintenance on Wednesday, November 20 from 4pm-10pm US Central Standard Time (2024-11-20 22:00 UTC to 2024-11-21 4:00 UTC). During this period, all projects and platform services will be inaccessible. We apologize for the inconvenience; this maintenance is necessary to make updates to platform infrastructure and improve long-term reliability and uptime. Please visit status.zooniverse.org for updates before and during the downtime period. For any additional questions, please email contact@zooniverse.org.
Finished! Looks like this project is out of data at the moment!
Thank you for all your hard work on the project! We have completed transcription of UCSB's collection and are waiting for additional documents to be scanned.

Ongoing Digital Humanities Work
Researchers in the Summer Research Internship have used the techniques of topic modeling and network analysis to investigate the collection. So far, they have applied these techniques to Boxes 2 and 3, which represent approximately 15 percent of the collection. The network map below shows the connections within the collection that network analysis has revealed so far. As we transcribe more and more letters, we will be able to add more correspondents to these maps.
