Happy days.

Being UK based I have to be checking two sets of copyright. So I’m a bit more limited on somethings.

Anyway,

This is my first recording for Librivox so if you pick up anything in the prooflisten that is particularly egregious please do let me know.

Hi,
What would you like your name to be in the catalog?
As far as the PD goes, it is PD in the USA. It is up to you to check for your own country please.
I will PL soon.
Thank for your story!
-Amy

Hi Amy, it’s been PD in the UK since 2016 so safe on that front.

I haven’t included my name in the recording, but for the collection you can use J.

Hi J.,
Nice telling. There is only one update needed. It is very quiet. Please amplify it by 9 db with a target of 89 db. When you upload the adjusted file, please rename it using only lower case letters.
Cheers!
Amy

p.s.
You can find the Checker in this thread. viewtopic.php?f=21&t=36489

Thanks for the link to the checker, really handy! I must have missed it when I was reading through the new member email and links.

Hi, Amy, my name is Shannon not Sharon

. Thank you for the prompt attention to my submission!

Apologies if this is not the correct forum to make this inquiry but reading through previous post replies here it occured to me..should I have checked to see if my submission is in the public domain in Canada, where I am located?

Generally, thanks to mutual rules between Canada and USA I have noticed that the vast majority of works in public domain in USA are considered so in Canada as well but in this case I don't know. Is there any web site that I can look at?

Thank you kindly.

Sorry, became caught up with things.

As there are still gaps left, I would like to submit 'Against the Stone Beasts' by James Blish. It's about seventy minutes long. I will do it today to make sure I actually do it this time. I think that's too long for one track if I remember. There is a simple cut-off point at just over the half hour mark, Chapter 1: 19, 2:13------3:34. How many tracks would you like?
