Hello Volunteers!

Benetech's marketing department is seeking volunteers to transcribe
12 to 15 audio recordings into written text in order to make them
accessible to deaf-blind and hard-of-hearing individuals. The audio
recordings are 30 to 45 minutes in length on average. The
transcriptions should be verbatim representations of the audio
recordings, created in Word in standard sentence case, and divided
into paragraphs as appropriate. They also need proofreaders to
proofread these transcriptions. Volunteers should notify me
(Madeleine  - at the email below) upon completion of each
transcription or proof of a transcription to receive $2.50 credit per
transcription or proof.  If interested, please contact Marcy Goot
(marcyg at benetech.org ) in marketing by November 20 and let her know
if you would like to proofread or transcribe.

Best,

Madeleine Linares
