Incidentally, all 50 volumes in The Sacred Books of the East , edited by Max Muller with contributions by him, are available on Google Books and the Internet Archive. Those familiar with the series of course know the multitudes they contain. (There are also copies at Sacred-Texts.com as well; I don'...

If MOAR Volume II, Teutonic Mythology, doesn't become available, anyone who is interested in the subject might consider the four volumes of Teutonic Mythology by Jakob Grimm (yes, one of those Grimms) available on Internet Archive and, I believe, Google Books. To quote from Children's Literature (Li...

There seems to be a complete version of that EB on the Internet Archive, copied from Google Books: there are so many editions of the EB on that source, however, that I didn't take the time to make comparisons. This matter does raise concerns in my mind, though: I've always thought that once a work g...

Thanks for all the advice (advices?) In response to your suggestions and comments: annise , there are probably few times when I have nothing but Audacity running, but it's possible that something might be using more power than I think. . . . aravis , as for moving the mic around--no, I find if I do ...

If the problem in this topic has already been discussed, please feel free to direct me to the appropriate messages. It's kind of driving me insane. This has occurred using Audacity 1.3.3 and 1.3.4, with a few other programs open and with no others; connected, or disconnected. Furthermore, I can neve...

With high hopes for the future of it, I have posted the new and--I trust--error-free version at http://upload.librivox.org/share/uploads/jo/secondinaugural_lincoln.mp3.

I've been informed of errors that I made in my version of Lincoln's Second Inaugural, not read about until after the Nonfiction Collection was posted. I take it that it's (a) too late or not possible to >hrrumm!hak! kaf< have it removed from that collection so the corrected speech can be included in...

I haven't read and therefore am not specifically suggesting these as projects, but via http://www.bestoflegends.org I found these three pirate books, which don't seem to have been done for Librivox: Wolves of the Sea Being a Tale of the Colonies from the Manuscript of One Geoffry Carlyle, Seaman, Na...

If anyone has a problem linking to cyberhymnal via the standard url (cyberhymnal.org) I think I found an alternate url, which was set up a few years ago after the site was hacked. In any event, take a look at http://www.hymntime.com/tch. If I'm not mistaken, it's the 'authentic' Cyber Hymnal under a...

Submitted for your consideration: http://upload.librivox.org/share/uploads/ce/ghohor002_oldportrait_nisbet_jwm.mp3 About 12 minutes' duration "The Old Portrait," by Hugh Nisbet With text at http://www.horrormasters.com/Text/a0565.pdf If someone's previous recording has been submitted and i...

Virtually none of the following will do much good with respect to whether it's ok to do a reading of this book, but I feel led to share it any way. First, I did an extensive search for archbishop Averkios Lampire, not only where he might have been found on the Net, but within what small quantity of ...

Ok. The text link is:
http://www.gutenberg.org/dirs/etext90/linc211.txt and the stated duration is 5:57; your mileage may vary

I've done a reading of Lincoln's Second Inaugural and sent it to http://upload.librivox.org/share/uploads/xx/SecondInaugural_Lincoln.mp3. It was suggested this was an appropriate place to mention it. I'll check here to see if I need to do anything more, or else. .... Wait. That didn't come out right...

This is a response to a reply in Book Suggestions, which said, 'Come here to make further comments,' so I came here to make a further comment. Ahem THOSE LITTLE WORDS (with apologies to modest lassies and people with literary taste-- or any sort of taste) Tune: make up your own I hae ye ken those 'l...

Noting as I did that the version of the Epic at sacred-texts was published in England, I wondered if there ever had been a US printing and how I could find out, when suddenly I was inspired to loc.gov myself in to the Library of Congress, and this is what I found in the catalog under 'Thompson, R.
