Who We Are
Welcome to the National Archives' Innovation Hub. We are located at the National Archives at Washington, DC
What You Can Do Here
The Innovation Hub provides a space for the public to:
- transcribe documents
- tag documents
- scan documents in our holdings
When you scan your records in the Hub, you receive digital copies of your scans, free of charge. Your scans will also be uploaded into the National Archives Catalog. We are also a space for the public and staff to collaborate on projects that move the agency forward. These are just a few of the projects we are working on now, and we hope to do more in the future.
Citizen Scanning
If you’re a researcher at the National Archives in Washington, DC, have your records brought directly to the Hub for scanning.
You'll take home a digital copy of your scans, and we'll upload a copy to our National Archives Catalog.
Box of the Month
While you are visiting the Hub, you can also help us out by scanning in some documents from our Boxes of the Month. Help us make our records more accessible.
