Podcasting public domain books

September 19, 2005

LibriVox

What happens when a bunch of volunteers get together and podcast books in the public domain? You get a bunch of audiobooks from the public domain! Check it out, become a volunteer, have a listen.

So far, there are incomplete files of:

* Conrad, Joseph. The Secret Agent
* Dostoyevsky, Fyodor. Notes from the Underground
* Shelley, Mary W. Frankenstein, or Modern Prometheus
* Wodehouse, PG. Psmith in the City

And plans to do Leo Tolstoy’s “Childhood.”
