Discover - Share - Protect
“My mother kept diaries, and I took possession of them when she died. Those books contained wonderful stories and memories. Several years later our basement flooded. Everything was ruined – including the diaries. It breaks my heart to think of what is gone forever.”
“The father I knew was not the same man I found in his letters. To me he was always very staid and serious. Not in these letters though! I had no idea he was so funny nor that he was so involved in sports and theater and just plain goofing off! I’m so happy I got to see this side of him.”
Two different stories, two different outcomes. If you want to make sure your letters and diaries are preserved, the time to act is now. You never know what tomorrow will bring, and the last thing you want to do is lose your family treasures forever.
JournalScribe organizes and transforms your collection of letters, diaries, journals, and oral histories into searchable, shareable documents – and protects them from the ravages of time, providing you with something you can hand down from generation to generation.
In your letters and journals there are forgotten treasures waiting to be discovered. Whether your own journals or those of a family member, you will discover things you may not have realized about yourself or your family.
When we digitize letters and journals, it makes them more manageable and easier to share with family members. (If we’re working on your personal journals, sharing may not be a priority for you, and that’s fine.)
Your journals and letters will be protected and preserved. We’ll digitize the content and preserve the originals in acid-free boxes and folders to make sure they survive for generations to come.
JournalScribe helps you gain control over handwritten documents, previously typed documents, and oral recordings. We digitize the documents through transcription and/or scanning. Once they are in digital format, it makes it so much easier for you to share and search the materials. Plus you have a backup so if anything should happen to the original material, the stories aren’t lost forever.
