- Type of proof-listening required: Standard
This project has a dedicated Proof Listener who will listen to all files: Anna.
IMPORTANT - soloist, please note: in order to limit the amount of languishing projects (and hence the amount of files on our hard-pressed server), we ask that you post an update at least once a month in your project thread, even if you haven't managed to record anything. If we don't hear from you for three months, your project will be opened up to a group project as soon as a Book Coordinator can be found. Files you have completed will be used in this project. If you haven't recorded anything yet, your project will be removed from the forum (contact any admin to have it re-instated).
MAGIC WINDOW:
(BC admin)
- The reader will record the following at the beginning and end of each file:
No more than 0.5 to 1 second of silence at the beginning of the recording!
Start of recording (Intro)
- "Chapter [number] of [Book title]. - This is a LibriVox recording. All LibriVox recordings are in the public domain. For more information, or to volunteer, please visit: librivox DOT org"
- If you wish, say:
"Recording by [your name]"
- Say:
"Title, by Author. [Translated by [translator]]. [Chapter]"
For the second and all subsequent sections, you may optionally use the shortened form of this intro disclaimer: - "Chapter [number] of [Book title]. This LibriVox recording is in the Public Domain.
- If you wish, say:
"Recording by [your name]"
- Say:
"Title, by Author. [Translated by [translator]]. [Chapter]"
End of recording- At the end of the section, say:

- If you wish, say:
"Recording by [your name], [city, your blog, podcast, web address]"
- At the end of the book, say (in addition):
"End of Title, by Author. [Translated by [translator]]."
There should be 5 seconds silence at the end of the recording, or 10 seconds for files longer than 30 minutes.

Excellent! I recorded one of the stories from this book for my 1912 collection. Are you gonna read them in dialect as I tried to do, Adrian?

There's a version of it loitering somewhere at Distributed Proofreaders -- doesn't seem to be in progress, though, so it's good that you're reading from another source, Adrian. Eventually there will be a PG text ...
