Hello! I'm Katherine (she/her) and I've thought about volunteering for LibriVox for awhile and I'm excited to actually do it. Along with reading and listening to audiobooks, I also love to cook, visit museums, and attend live theatre.

Thanks for having me!

Welcome! I'm glad you finally came our way. :D Your interests are right along my line! I have cooked, visited a museum, and attended live theatre, all within the last 4 days! I am sure you will find things that pique your interest here.

To get started, do your 1-Minute Test. It's not an audition - just a chance to make sure that all the technical settings you're using when recording match Librivox requirements.

After you're OK'd on that, browse the forums for a project you'd like to participate in. Most people start with a chapter in a book or some other short work. Post a claim for a section in the corresponding thread when you see something you'd like to record.

Any time you have a question, post in one of the forums, and someone will pop in to help you out.

Have fun!
