This toolkit deals with transcribing your own, or your team’s, data. If you are considering sending your data to somebody else or an external transcribing agency, see the toolkit on outsourcing transcribing.
Transcribing your own data takes a long time and it is a task that often seems to pop up in your To Do list at a time when your enthusiasm for your project is at a low ebb. The aim of this toolkit is to help you plan properly for transcribing, and save you time by helping you do your transcribing more efficiently.
