# Wellcome Transcribers' Group

As part of the Transcribe Wellcome team you will be invited to join the Transcribers' group on Microsoft Teams. The group is an important part of the transcription process and is the best way to keep up to date with updates, advice and events.

## Teams Channels

There are several channels within the group:

* **General:** Where the organisation team/admin post important updates and event announcements. The ‘Files’ section on this channel is where members upload spreadsheets when they want feedback or once they have [completed their transcriptions](https://docs.wellcomecollection.org/transcribe-wellcome/transcription-guidelines/grp-wellcome-transcribers#completed-spreadsheets).
* **Library Accession Cards:** A channel where members can ask for and read advice in transcribing the Library Accession Registers. Members should also use this space to highlight any interesting finds from the Registers and inform the admin team when they have submitted [completed Library spreadsheets](https://docs.wellcomecollection.org/transcribe-wellcome/transcription-guidelines/grp-wellcome-transcribers#completed-spreadsheets).
* **Museum Index Cards:** A channel for members to ask for and read advice in transcribing the Museum Flimsy Slips. Members should also use this space to highlight any interesting finds from the Slips and inform the admin team when they have submitted [completed Museum spreadsheets](https://docs.wellcomecollection.org/transcribe-wellcome/transcription-guidelines/grp-wellcome-transcribers#completed-spreadsheets).
* **Visual Material Registers:** A channel where members can ask for and read advice in transcribing the Visual Material Registers.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.wellcomecollection.org/collections-information/lQ0fMyP8xr8hWWJiQkfl/transcribe-wellcome/transcription-guidelines/grp-wellcome-transcribers.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
