Welcome, Tessel! Just in the last few weeks we have had new volunteers join from around a dozen countries. It's very exciting - we are truly an international project!

If you haven’t yet seen it, take a look at the Newbie Guide to Recording. It will orient you to the whole process.

Then, 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!

Hi vviera!
Thank you for the warm welcome and detailed explanation. I've just uploaded a one minute recording as requested.
i'm sure i will find my way around here.
