Mont Oriol has a section orphaned.

I have shortlisted it again, thanks for letting me know!

We now have only 62 projects to go, which means that this month we have already produced 133 new audiobooks!

This is amazing!

You are amazing!

You are all doing such a wonderful job on this challenge.

I have a paralyzed vocal cord so I can only BC/PL at this point. I know many PLers also record. During this final push towards the anniversary goal if you want to concentrate on just recording please let me know. I'm happy to help keep you up to date on your PL work in order to give you more recording time.

Oh that sounds terrible!

Can you speak at all? How long will it be until it gets... um... deparalyzed again?

I once had a vocal chord nodule and wasn't allowed to speak for 4 weeks (and after 2 I physically couldn't). It was hell!

It's awful. I never realized how much I took talking for granted. I can be heard hoarsely if I strain and there is no background noise around me. Usually, the effort and residual discomfort isn't worth whatever I needed to say so I don't bother often. It's been almost 6 weeks, with no end in sight. They don't know why yet. A different test needs to be scheduled. In the mean time the antibiotics didn't help and now the round of steroids aren't letting me sleep so I'm just hanging out at LV letting everyone read to me and keep me company.

I just cataloged Lars' last solo that Algy completed. So that is one more to the list!

I don't know if the stats are up to date yet, but we are either one away, or tied with our best month ever!
143 for this month is what the stats are saying - 144 was our best month.

Post by **Availle** » July 29th, 2016, 7:05 pm

Those stats in the back update immediately when something is catalogued.

That means we're standing at 143 - one more project to tie, and two more to beat our all time best of 144 (from November 2009, another cleanup month, by the way).
I'm wondering which project it's going to be...

Post by **Availle** » July 29th, 2016, 9:21 pm

We have a tie with November 2009: 144 projects catalogued this month!

The last one was:
https://librivox.org/marriage-as-it-was-as-it-is-and-as-it-should-be-by-annie-besant/

One more so that July 2016 becomes our most productive month ever!

Well, Carolin's reading of The Thief is now in at 145 . . . https://librivox.org/the-thief-by-anna-katharine-green/

And I'm cataloging Mendelssohn for David Wales . . . which will take us up to 146 for July and down to 49 remaining to 10,000!

Apart from the Readers a BIG SHOUT OUT goes to the Cover Makers

I was expecting there to be a long list of unmade covers, but they are keeping up with the readers

Post by **Availle** » July 30th, 2016, 5:19 am

49 projects to go - maybe I should start noting that in the subject line as well?

Yes, everybody is very busy helping out, from MCs and BCs to DPLers and readers, makers of covers and m4bs...
It's amazing just watching this!

Thank you everybody!
