Hi Tatiana, Welcome to the Short Nonfiction Collection (SNF)! Thinking about the recent focus on the importance of interconnecting waterways at Suez, this was an excellent reading choice! Very interesting! It sounds as if Fort Wayne is building on local history with its Rivergreenway project: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fort_Wayne_Rivergreenway.tac107 wrote: ↑March 31st, 2021, 8:21 pm The French and British at Three Rivers, Prepared by the staff of the Public Library of Fort Wayne and Allen County

Thank you and thank you for the interesting link! I actually got really excited when I saw the title because I assumed it was about Pittsburgh (they have Three River everything) but this was still a great read that I think people will enjoy. We don't often hear about the French and Indian War in the Midwest.Sue Anderson wrote: ↑April 1st, 2021, 5:29 amHi Tatiana, Welcome to the Short Nonfiction Collection (SNF)!

Thanks for the PL, Craig. That is an impressive, but not surprising statistic!

That's great, Randy! Everybody is allowed two recordings per volume.

Hi Sue,
I have a question about attribution. I'm interested in reading a piece from an old film journal, which is made up of short commentary from 9 different women (a few paragraphs each). The article itself has no author, although there is a brief introductory paragraph, presumably by someone on the journal staff. How would an article like this be identified on the recording or elsewhere? Would I need to list all nine women as authors? Or just the first person alphabetically and "et al"? Or are the title and journal name sufficient -- "'The Feminine Mind in Picture Making'" in The Film Daily, June 1925"?
Thank you!
Amy D.

Hi Amy, Welcome to the Short Nonfiction Collection (SNF)! First, let me say that film history, film reviews, etc. are fertile field for SNF reads and always welcome!
I skimmed the article you mention, and it will be a great read! I particularly liked what Jane Murfin had to say: "Women's mind in picture making! I wonder if there is such a thing as the feminine mind, strictly speaking. Coleridge once said "The truth is, a great mind must be androgynous."
Technically speaking, the author is "anonymous," and that is the way it would be listed in the catalog. It's not possible. with the way the LibriVox catalog is currently set up, to have more than one author listed, but we could add a note to the SNF volume introduction, mentioning the names of these 9 women as authors.
The problem which you rightly point out is that the article is a series of mini essays by what I would take to be important women film writers, script builders, and title writers of the 1920's. Maybe we could tweak the catalog title to make it more clear that these are individual women speaking out; you might have an idea, or maybe it could be something like "Women in Film Speak Their Minds (1925)."
Looking forward to your contribution to the SNF!
Hi
I recorded an entry from Encyclopedia Britannica, but unlike in the previous case this batch of articles is accompanied by an index of authors whose initials appear under each entry. It is therefore possible to attribute each entry to a particular author. Do you want me to include the author's name or just go with "by Encyclopedia Britannica"? See here: http://www.gutenberg.org/files/40538/40538-h/40538-h.htm#ar5 (under the list of entries, I'll be submitting the one about Hussites).

Hi Piotrek81, Welcome back to the SNF! Since "L" is clearly identified in the index as the author of the Hussites article, let's give him attribution. You can say in the intro, by "Count Lützow," from the Encylopedia Brittanica..."Piotrek81 wrote: ↑April 6th, 2021, 8:24 am Hi

L. Count Lützow, Litt.D. (Oxon.), Ph.D. (Prague), F.R.G.S.
Chamberlain of H.M. the Emperor of Austria, King of Bohemia. Hon. Member of the Royal Society of Literature. Member of the Bohemian Academy; &c. Author of Bohemia, a Historical Sketch; The Historians of Bohemia (Ilchester Lecture, Oxford, 1904); The Life and Times of John Hus; &c.
Hussites.
This, of course, begs the question of what is Count Lützow's full name, but since the Encycopdia Brittanica didn't supply it, I guess we will go along with their judgement:
Franz Heinrich Hieronymus Valentin Graf von Lützow or Hrabě František Lützow or Count Francis Lützow (21 March 1849 Hamburg – 13 January 1916 Territet, Vaud, Switzerland) was a Bohemian (Czech) author, historian, critic and revivalist. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Francis_L%C3%BCtzow
Looking forward to your contribution to vol. 081!

I like your idea regarding the SNF volume introduction and the catalog title. As you point out, the article title suggests a single author; "Women in Film Speak Their Minds (1925)" more accurately conveys the content.
And just so I'm clear, for the recording I should just say, "'The Feminine Mind in Picture Making'" by Anonymous". That's it?
Thanks!
