The document discusses the City Archives of Leuven, which holds over 13 km of documents from the 12th to 21st century. It focuses on the Itinera Nova project, which aims to digitize and transcribe the 1,127 registers of the Court of Alderman from 1362-1795. Over 35,000 transcriptions are now online. The project relies on over 40 volunteers aged 50-90 from the Leuven region. It also describes a pilot program to recruit prisoners from the Leuven Central Prison as volunteers to help with transcription work. Challenges include integrating the prisoners into the existing volunteer community while ensuring the work remains a hobby and can be done offline.
