About
Index cards and finding aids for the collections of the Lesbian and Gay Archives of New Zealand (LAGANZ) | Te Pūranga Takatāpui o Aotearoa: manuscript papers, posters, books, serials, audio and video.
LAGANZ's collections are community-owned and drawn from Aotearoa New Zealand's lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, takatāpui, fa'afafine, intersex or queer communities (LGBTTFIQ). LGBTTFIQ also includes any same-sex attracted, transgender or intersex members of any indigenous community of the Pacific.
LAGANZ ran an index card Transcribathon event for volunteers in July 2021. All cards have been corrected! An amazing effort, thank you!
Current transcription project for volunteers
We have one current transcription project (or work) - the Pink Triangle Index for Issues 1 - 25 (1979-1981).
This project is open now for OCR correction.
Look for a 'page' that has not yet been retitled with a 'PAGE-" prefix as a good place to start eg a page titled '33' not 'PAGE-32'. Read the instructions on the 'Correct' tab to see how we need corrections made.
Adding the 'PAGE-' prefix is how volunteers let us know that they have completed a page.
