Summary
After a nearly two-year collaboration on digital preservation work by the NYG&B, Church of the Transfiguration staff, and a cadre of dedicated volunteers, an initial rollout of publicly searchable marriage records were finally released in April 2024. These materials are part of an ongoing pipeline of records to be released in the coming months under this partnership.
Please join us for a panel discussion (both in person and livestreamed), moderated by NYG&B President D. Joshua Taylor, with Kalyn Loewer, the NYG&B’s Manager of Digital Collections; Pat Williams, Historical Society Chairperson for the Church of the Transfiguration; and some of the volunteers who worked on the project. The panelists will discuss how this collaboration has resulted in tens of thousands of accessible records; lessons learned from the project; and how this partnership can be a model for other organizations to participate in Digitize New York.
