I would like to claim sections 7 and 8 (Algebra parts 1 & 2) please. I have not read mathematics for Librivox before, so I ask in advance for patience from the PL.

I've started recording section 8, but will hold off submitting it until I get feedback on sec 7 and the way I dealt with the figures.
Thanks in advance the PL efforts - gotta be a tough job on this type of project.

7
00:32 Should be: [Part Title] [Chapter] [Chapter Title] [Part], that is: Pure Mathematics, Chapter 4, Algebra, Part 1.
(It seems that the TOC has the correct chapter numbering. The text itself has two chapter 3's. Correct me if I'm mistaken).

You can ask the BC, Sienna, for guidance on "reading" the tables in Part 2 of this chapter.

Thanks for the clarification. I think I have it right now:

Sienna,
In Part 1 of this book the TOC has the correct chapter numbering but the text itself has two chapter 3's so the chapter numbers in the text starting with chapter 4 are incorrect. Please confirm and if I'm correct decide how to inform the readers.

I would appreciate some clarification on how to handle other errors in the text. In particular I am finding quite a few figure labelling errors, where either the figure label is attached to the wrong figure (appears to be another off-by-one error), or some are merely incorrect.

Example: pg 157, figure 53 is a "Curve of sines", not a "Curve of Lines"
Ex: pp 159-160, the label for figure 56 clearly should be for figure 57 which is unlabeled

I know we are not to be proofreaders of the text, but mislabeling the figures could be very confusing to the listener.

Thanks in advance for your guidance.

Hi Dave,

You are correct. There is mis-numbering on the text chapters. We should follow the TOC.

Thanks,
Sienna
