For clarification of what "in the Public Domain" means read this. Try to stay with works that run less than 60 minutes [74 minutes is the absolute max]. There is no need to sign-up before recording, as long as the work is clearly in the Public Domain. But please note: Wikisource CAN NOT be used as a source. See "Our policy on text sources."Old favorites, such as Charles Dickens, Ernest Hemingway and O. Henry make appearances in this 104th edition of the Librivox Short Story Collection. As always, stories were selected and read by dedicated volunteers. We invite you to sit back and enjoy!
