Health, Disease, and Everything in Between, by T. S. Eliot (1888 - 1965), Anne Kingsmill Finch (1661 - 1720) et al.

This project is now complete. All audio files can be found on our catalog page here:

https://librivox.org/health-disease-and-everything-in-between-by-various/


Volunteers outside the USA: T. S. Eliot died in 1965. This person's work may still be protected by copyright in countries where copyright duration is determined by the author's death date. In Europe this is 70 years; in Canada it is 50 years; and in Australia it is 70 years for authors who died after 1955.
This collection is a mix of poems from several authors, all of which talk about health and disease from both the patient and the doctor's perspectives. It has a unique way of shedding light on the medical field. (Summary by Maryam Arabi)

IMPORTANT - soloist, please note: in order to limit the number of languishing projects on our server, we ask that you post an update at least once a month in your project thread, even if you haven't recorded anything. If we don't hear from you for three months, your project may be opened up to a group project if a Book Coordinator is found. Files you have completed will be used in this project. If you haven't recorded anything yet, your project will be removed from the forum (contact any admin to see if it can be re-instated).

Please don't download or listen to files belonging to projects in process unless you are the BC or PL. Our servers are not set up to handle the greater volume of traffic. Please wait until the project has been completed. Thanks!

Dear Librivox team,

I would like to introduce you to our project. Students from Weill Cornell Medicine – Qatar (a U.S. medical school in the Middle East) recorded high-quality spoken poetry in soundproof rooms at Northwestern University in Qatar with the support of the Qatar National Library to contribute to the Librivox project. We would really appreciate it if you could help us find a Meta-Coordinator and proof listeners.

This project is a collection of eight poems written by several poets about health and disease. The poems have all been recorded according to Librivox's standards and are currently being edited. We are familiar with the process of uploading audio files to the Magic Window.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,

Maryam Arabi
Premedical Student and
Alan Weber
Professor of English
Weill Cornell Medicine – Qatar
Doha, Qatar

I asked my librarian about the noise, and she said, "no one would come here
if they weren't allowed to talk out loud." So I read out loud.

I could help you with this. First, however, we would need to make sure the students are reading from Public Domain sources, but you didn't add links to your sources in your first post. So please, give us that piece of information.

Also, the template you used is the one for solos, and this would be a collaborative effort, if I understand correctly, so we would have to fix the template. You could simply go through the same process used for creating this one, but making sure to pick "collaborative" for the type of project and "yes" to answer "Is this a compilation with multiple authors and sources?". TYou can then copy the code again, go to your first post, click on the pencil icon on the top right corner and edit your post with the new correct template. And we can proceed from there :)
Also, have you abandoned that other project linked above?

Below are the links to the e-text with the poems. They are all in the public domain and have been checked for copyrights. As for the other project, we will be getting back to it soon as we are still checking copyrights and looking for the e-text.

Thank you for your help and understanding!

Actually, I wanted to clarify something: Even though there are poems from multiple poets in this collection, there is only one reader who is reading them all. In the template generator, I did answer yes to "Is this a compilation with multiple authors and sources?" For our previous projects, we had the same situation and used the same template. Could you kindly clarify would edits I should make?
Thank you!

Hi Maryam,

I can MC and DPL for this project.

Do I understand correctly that these poems will be read by different readers, as opposed to one reader recording all eight poems?

If the answer is yes, then all the readers will need to register for a LibriVox forum account before submitting their recordings.

Also, if yes, then you should change the template in your post above from a solo to the one for a group recording.

Once you have confirmed the above, I will get this set up for you in the database.

Thank you so much!

There is only one reader recording all eight poems, and she will be creating a Librivox account shortly.

I hope that answers your questions. Please let me know if I still need to change the template and thank you once again.

OK then the template you posted is good. For future projects, please post the template as the first post in the thread. I've moved the text of your introductory post to the bottom of the post with the template. You can post this information after you post the thread with the template so it appears in the second post in the thread. (I hope that makes sense to you!)

Looking forward to listening to these. :)

Just noticed there were files uploaded here. :) I've listened to the first two poems.

Section 2 Dust & Disease is PL OK

Section 1 - one minor note on To Disease @ 00:39 I hear "and loves there" text is "and lovers there"

Hi Maryam - Is the soloist still planning to finish this project? It's been over 3 months since there has been any new posts here. Just to remind you and the reader of our policy for languishing projects -
IMPORTANT - soloist, please note: in order to limit the number of languishing projects on our server, we ask that you post an update at least once a month in your project thread, even if you haven't recorded anything.

H czandra. I had a few minutes so I set this back up with you as the BC/soloist. You now have access to the MW and also write access to the top post if any changes are needed there. Let me know if I missed anything
