Praise received for praChirp (Prachi Pendse) from our 'Thank a reader' feature : Hi, Prachi, I want to thank you very much for your reading of David Hilbert's ' Mathematical Problems '. Your voice is clear, your pace is good, your pronounciations of proper names and French and German titles and phr...

Has anyone heard of this before? Did you consider actually it? Has anyone actually donated?

Found it! Transcript is here: https://librivox.org/uploads/icequeen/ZauberlindaMissingPages.txt

Big thanks to the Rare Books and Special Collections Department at Princeton. I also sent info@archive.org an email about the omission from the online scans.

-Prachi

The perks of being at a university, I put in an interlibrary loan request for chapter 11, esp. for the missing pages. I'll let you know if anything turns up.

Riches, 1 min 6 secs: https://librivox.org/uploads/lezer/masqueofthetwostrangers_riches_egerton_128kb.mp3

Also reuploaded Poetry with some noise cleaning. Both uploads are the same file, just one has _128kb.mp3 at the end. Is it better? Hopefully not so static-y.

-Prachi

I just looked up my reader page in the catalog and noticed that there is now a reader view and pl view. It is sheer genius. Thank you!

Chapter 13 is reuploaded at 4 mins 7 secs.

And here's Chapter 14, 11 mins 51 secs:

Can I have 15 and 16 next?

-Prachi

Here is Wise Poetry from Masque, at 4 mins 50 secs. Wonder why it is called a Masque...

Am I allowed to take Riches, also in the same play?

-Prachi

Thanks for catching that. The re-upload comes in at a minute and a half : https://librivox.org/uploads/lezer/dreamplay_theology_4.mp3

-Prachi

Dean of Theology is 1 min 6 secs long. It's at : https://librivox.org/uploads/lezer/dreamplay_theology_4.mp3

Hopefully I didn't miss any lines.

-Prachi

I don't think the Deans are referred to as he or she in the play. So if it's okay for the Dean of Theology to be a woman, I can claim the role.

Chapter 13 clocks in at 4 mins 9 secs: https://librivox.org/uploads/icequeen/zauberlinda_13_gibson_128kb.mp3

Hi again,

My section's at https://librivox.org/uploads/triciag/sikhreligion1_05_macauliffe.mp3
It's 15 mins 16 secs long. The pronunciation guide is super helpful. Thanks Sachin!

-Prachi

Thank you for the replies! I'm still a little confused. I thought BCs could access everything they need by logging in with their BC account at librivox.org/workflow. Also, at the bottom of the page (my scren shot doesn't cover this) I can see the server operating system and Apache version being run....

I would contribute as well. Just a note, LV is currently recording a Tom Swift book by Appleton already: viewtopic.php?f=9&t=49049

Perhaps Claire and MaryAnn, who are coordinating the current Tom Swift book, would be willing to take this up later.
