==MarineLives Online Research Seminar: Thursday, April 25th 2022==
  
The MarineLives vision is to digitise English High Court of Admiralty records from the 1650s, and to make them freely available, fully text searchable, collaboratively transcribed and annotated.  These records are then available as a resource for teaching, research, and outreach.
