 The original pages of the Proceedings were scanned and the scans are now available at [[https://www.oldbaileyonline.org/index.jsp|Old Bailey Online]]; you can access individual scans by clicking on the “see original” link on the right of the text of any trial (e.g. [[https://www.oldbaileyonline.org/browse.jsp?div=t18020217-3|here]]). The texts were then manually transcribed by multiple typists and an optical character recognition (OCR) software was employed to create transcriptions for comparison so any differences or inaccuracies could be resolved. However, as the original pages are often faded or otherwise damaged (see, for example, [[https://www.oldbaileyonline.org/images.jsp?doc=OA174005070012|here]]), it is not always possible to guarantee a 100% accuracy of the transcriptions. Users are therefore advised to consult the scanned pages when a very precise reading is required.
