What you will find in this resource:

This guide attempts to elucidate what is a transcription made from sound and audio-visual documents, how important it is in an archive, what general guidelines must be taken into account to create a transcription guide, and what are the possibilities of current technology in relation to automatic transcription. The guide is available in English, Catalan, and Spanish for all ICA members.

The guide was translated into English by Salvatore D’Errico, whose work is focused on the valorisation of the oral history programmes at the Historical Archives of the European Union.
