Hello,
One of our Librivox readers reached out to me to request a reader name change on a book he read. Emailed copied in here:

Hi Danielle,
I don't know where he is referring to. Both the LV catalog page and the archive.org page for the book have both of their names listed.

In the sidebar on the LV page, it shows "Read by: LibriVox Volunteers". But that's a programming result; we can't manually change it.
School fiction: David Blaize
America Exploration: The First Four Voyages of Amerigo Vespucci
Serial novel: The Wandering Jew
Medieval England meets Civil War Americans: Centuries Apart

Ah. Good point, Tricia. I missed that. I'm wondering if he is using the LibriVox app by Book Design. At least in the online version, on the index page it must pick up what is in the sidebar. (Also it appears that they added this to their app before the catalog page was edited to include Katie as a reader).

I concur that the Librivox Audiobook App must pick up what's in the sidebar. That is why, in my duet "Ingersoll on Robert Burns", I began the summary "This is a duet by Michele Fry and Kay Williams, because the sidebar couldn't list two names.knotyouraveragejo wrote: ↑March 24th, 2022, 2:03 pm Ah.

If John really wants it it could be added to the summary. However I do not know what changes trigger changes on any of the many other sites using our files - they are usually not directly linked, they are harvested.
