First, let me tell me you that you do a great job here.
I appreciate the vast library of recordings and I also appreciate that you release them into the public domain, even though it opens up a virtual Pandora’s box of potential misuse and abuse.
Whether we add to that box or not is of course highly subjective.

We used the voice of Stephanie Lee (reading a 19th century physics book, I believe) as a source to create the vocals for the song, as well as a couple of sound effects, for our game called Vader Blox.

If you are reading this Stephanie, let me say thank you for your contribution!
Also, you have been credited as Stephanie Lee (with thanks to LibriVox.org). If you want us to remove the credit or if you wish to use a nom du plume instead, please let me know.
Feel free to use us as a reference if you wish.

I don’t know if I’m allowed to leave a link here. If not, I’d be happy to delete it.
More info about the game, which is for Mac, iPad and iPhone, can be found here:

It’s a free download, and the singing starts a few seconds into the song.

That's nice of you to try to get ahold of her. :)

Apparently she hasn't been around since 2011: memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=43824

She doesn't have any public contact information in her profile or on her reader catalog page.

Oh well…
But that’s the beauty of this site isn’t it? Years later, even though the volunteer has moved on to other things, the recordings are still here to enjoy!
