Hi there! A Transkribus user requested me to post the following: this person is looking for a #student interested in using @transkribus.bsky.social with a background in #geology or #geotechnical-engineering. They are interested in donating you a nice amount of credits to use on Transkribus.

I’d love to try to help. @amybrownhughes.bsky.social is it mainly to read the Latin?

En niet te vergeten: (aanzienlijk) veel onderling contact waardoor er ook makkelijker gestart kon/kan worden en er daarna specifieke modellen gebouwd konden worden.
