Be a Historian for the National Archives!

The National Archives have been working for many years to make thousands of documents accessible on the Internet. They have been able to scan and make available thousands of documents from World War 1.

But now they need you to use your "tagging" skills to label these documents so that people can search for a date or a person or a location. This makes it a lot easier for families of relatives or people doing research to find the best document for them. It also means that you can help track an individual's journey throughout the war.

It is really easy and simple to do, I did some myself!

Follow the link below to help out the National Archives and therefore help out fellow historians!
