Art Database Tagger

Hesperian, nonprofit publisher of Where There Is No Doctor and other resources for grassroots health programs worldwide, is looking for short-term Volunteer Art Database Taggers to help us move the art in all of our life-saving books into a brand-new database (ThirdLight). While making an important contribution to a worthy cause, you can improve your skills (or gain new experience) adding and editing metadata for art used in our books. Please check out the publications that we are tagging at hesperian.org.

Help us get ready for the October launch of this powerful tool, by becoming a volunteer! Can you volunteer 4 to 15 hours a week for the next 2 months? We offer training (either in our offices or remotely) and we will credit you in the thank you pages of the site.
