Transcribing the Memorial's Collection

Amplify - audio transcription

The Australian War Memorial holds a rich collection of interviews with people who have served in Australia's military forces. 

Some of the Memorial’s interview collection has been uploaded to Amplify.

Using speech-to-text software, Amplify creates machine-generated transcripts of oral history interviews which are edited by volunteers.

You can help enrich these historic records by correcting transcription errors as you listen to them.

Digital volunteering

This year, the Memorial is building a new online transcription tool that will enable you to transcribe, review, and tag digitised pages from the National Collection.

By becoming a transcriber, you can help make the National Collection more accessible, readable, and discoverable.

We will be seeking volunteers to trial our new transcription tool. To get involved email content@awm.gov.au
