TRANSLATION
|
| Pages translated into Norwegian
We are currently translating our website into several languages. Please understand that this is work-intensive and that it is difficult to keep the translated pages as current as the original version. Moreover, it is unavoidable that links from the translated websites mostly point to English pages.
|
Vi jobber med å oversette nettsidene våre til flere språk. Vennligst vis forståelse for at dette er mye arbeid, og at det er vanskelig å holde dem like oppdaterte som den originale siden. Dessuten er det uunngåelig at de fleste lenkene leder videre til Engelske nettsider.

Copyright, Public Domain and LibriVox

| Copyright, Public Domain, and LibriVox
|
Opphavsrett, Offentlig domene og LibriVox
|
| Copyright gives an individual or corporation exclusive rights on a text, for a limited period of time. This means no one else can reproduce the text or make derivative works (such as audio recordings) while the copyright is in force. Copyrights are granted for a limited time; they expire eventually, and the text enters the “public domain”, meaning anyone can use that text however they wish.
|
Opphavsrett gir en person eller et selskap eksklusive rettigheter til en tekst i en begrenset tidsperiode. Dette betyr at ingen andre kan reprodusere teksten eller bruke teksten for å lage derivative verk (slik som en lydbok) mens opphavretten er i kraft. de utløper til slutt</>, og teksten blir da en del av det "offentlige domene", og hvem som helst kan bruke teksten til hva de vil.
|
| LibriVox records only texts that are in the public domain in the USA (%see below for why%), and all our recordings are public domain (definitely in the USA, and maybe in your country as well, %see below%). This means anyone can use all our recordings however they wish (even to sell them).
|
LibriVox tar kun opp bøker som er i det offentlige domene i USA(se under for begrunnelse), og alle opptak er i det offentlige domene (garantert i USA, og kanskje i ditt land også, se under). Dette betyr at hvem som helst kan bruke ditt opptak til hva de vil (også selge dem).
|
| In addition, book summaries written by volunteers, CD cover art, and any other material that goes into our catalog with the audio recordings are in the public domain. Please note, however, that due to limitations in Wikipedia's license, summaries taken from Wikipedia are available under a CC-BY-SA license.
|
I tillegg er bok sammendrag skrevet av frivillige, CD cover art, og alt annet materiale som går inn i katalogen sammen med lydfilene i det offentlige domene. Vær oppmerksom på, imidlertid, at grunnet begrensninger i Wikipedias lisens, er sammendragene tatt fra Wikipedia tilgjengelige under ett CC-BY-SA license.

Practicalities
| The practical implications of our copyright policies are:
|
De praktiske implikasjonen av vår opphavsrett politikk er:
|
| you donate all the recordings you submit to LibriVox to the public domain
|
du donerer alle opptakene du leverer inn til LibriVox til det offentlige domene
|
| you may do whatever you like with our recordings - you don’t need permission
|
Du kan gjøre hva du vil med opptakene dine - du trenger ikke tillatelse
|
| in general, we may only record texts %published before 1923%
|
generelt kan vi kun ta opp tekster publisert før 1923
|
| we may not record texts that are still under copyright in the USA, but public domain in another country
|
we kan ikke ta opp tekster som fortsatt er under opphavsrett i USA, men offentlig domene i et annet land
|
| all our recordings are public domain in the USA, but not necessarily in other countries
|
alle våre opptak er i det offentlige domene i USA, men ikke nødvendigvis i andre land
|
| if you are outside the USA, we recommend that you check the copyright status of the work in your country before downloading our recording of it
|
om du befinner deg utenfor USA, anbefaler vi at du sjekker opphavsrett statusen på verket i ditt land før du laster ned vårt opptak av det
|
Copyright and Public Domain (in the USA)
| Under US law (under which LibriVox operates), all works published before 1923 are in the public domain. A work published after 1923 is probably still copyrighted and we probably %cannot record it%. If a work is published before 1923, then we may record it.
|
Under USAs lover (som LibriVox opererer under), er alle verk publisert før 1923 i det offentlige domene. Et verk publisert etter 1923 er sannsynligvis fortsatt under opphavsrett og mest sannsynlig kan vi ikke ta det opp. Om et verk er publisert før 1923 så kan vi ta det opp.
|
| Note also that a translation is considered a new work, and its copyright status is determined by the year of publication of the %translation%, not the original work.
|
Merk at også en oversettelse er ansett som et nytt verk, og dets opphavsrett er fastsatt av året oversettelsen ble utgitt, ikke original verket.
|
| Theoretically, new works should come into the public domain every year, which is what happens in other countries. However in the United States, a number of copyright laws have been passed extending the copyright term. See the %wikipedia article% for more info.
|
Teoretisk sett skal nye verket komme inn i det offentlige domene hvert år, som</> er det som skjer i andre land. Men i USA er det flere lover om opphavsrett som forlenger opphavsrett perioden.

What Can Other People Do with LibriVox Recordings
| LibriVox recordings are in the public domain, which means people can do anything they like with them. Mostly this just means people can listen to them for free. But it also means they can: sell them (for instance on ebay), broadcast them, put them in commercials, play them at political rallies, chop them up, remix them, make music recordings of them. The recordings are free, and there is no need to credit LibriVox, although of course we much prefer if you do credit us (with a link to our site).
|
LibriVox opptak er i det offentlige domene, som betyr at folk kan gjøre hva de vil med dem. For det meste betyr dette at folk kan høre på dem gratis. Men det betyr også at de kan: selge dem (for eksempel på ebay), kringkaste dem, bruke dem i reklamer, spille dem av i politiske propagandamøter, dele dem opp, remikse dem, lage musikk opptak av dem. Opptakene er gratis, og det er ikke nødvendig å gi noe kreditt til LibriVox, selvom vi selvfølgelig foretrekker om du gir oss kreditt (med en lenke til vår side).
|
| Here are some other examples of what people %might% do (and would have the right to do) with our recordings (and, if your record for us, your recordings):
|
Her er noen andre eksempler på hva folk kanskje gjør (og har full rett til å gjøre) med våre opptak (og, om du tar opp for oss, dine opptak):
|
| make CDs of Romance of Rubber sold as a fundraiser for a charity you don’t like;
|
lage "Romance of Rubber" CDer og selge dem i en pengeinnsamling til en veldedig formål du ikke liker
|
| put Origin of the Species as background atmosphere for a pornographic film;
|
Legge "Origin of the Species" som bakgrunds atmosphære i en pornografisk film;
|
| sample Fables for the Frivolous in a violent rap song;
|
sample "Fables for the Frivolous" i en voldelig rapp sang;
|
| use the summary of Frankenstein to promote a major motion picture.
|
bruke sammendraget fra "Frankenstein" til å markedsføre en stor film.
|
| Although these examples are far-fetched, they are all acceptable uses of public domain materials. So be aware of what you are doing when you free your recordings and text into the public domain. You really have to let go!
|
Selvom disse eksemplene er usannsynlige, er dette aksepterte måter å bruke materiell i det offentlige domene. Så vær klar over hva du gjør når du setter fri opptakene dine og teksten i det offentlige domene. Du må virkelig gi slipp på dem!
|
Why We Use the Laws of the USA
| LibriVox is an international project, with volunteer readers and listeners all over the world, and we record and make available texts in many languages. Copyright laws differ from country to country, and a work that is in the public domain in one country is not necessarily public domain in another. Our dependence on US law is a matter of practicalities and legal suggestions we have received from various people. The main reasons that we must use US laws include:
|
LibriVox er et internationalt prosjekt, med frivillige lesere og lyttere over hele verden, og vi tar opp og gjør tilgjengelig tekster i mange språk. Opphavsrett lovene er forskjellige fra land til land, og et verk som er i det offentlige domene i ett land er ikke nødvendigvis i det offentlige domene i ett annet land. Vår avhengighet av USAs lover handler om det praktiske og rettslige forslag vi har fått fra forskjellige mennesker. Hovedgrunnene til at vi må bruke USAs lov inkluderer:
|
| the domain name LibriVox.org is registered in the USA
|
domene navnet LibriVox.org er registrert i USA
|
| our website is hosted in the USA
|
nettsiden vår er hosted i USA
|
| all our audio files are hosted in the USA
|
alle lydfilene våre er hosted i USA
|
| the vast majority of our source texts come from %Project Gutenberg%, which does the (arduous) legal work to assure public domain status in the USA
|
størsteparten av kilde tekstene våre kommer fra Project Gutenberg som gjør det (anstrengende) rettslige arbeidet for å firsiker offentlig domene i USA
|
| it is impossible for us to verify the copyright status of every work in every country, or even many countries
|
det er umulig for oss å verifisere opphavsrett statusen for hvert verkt i hvert land, eller selv i mange land
|
| We do our utmost to ensure that all our recordings are public domain in the USA, and we offer them up to the world for free, but if you are in another country, it’s a good idea to check the status of a particular work before downloading, otherwise you *might* be violating copyright laws.
|
Vi gjør vårt beste for å forsikre at alle våre opptak er offentlig domene i USA, og vi tilbyr dem til verden gratis, men om du er i et annet land, er det en god ide å sjekke statusen til et bestemt verk før du laster det ned, ellers *kan* det hende du krenker opphavsrett lovene.
|

| Copyright law is a complicated and important business, and we encourage everyone to read more about it. Here are some resources:

| A podcast is a way to automatically download audio files to your computer from a specific show, or “feed.” You can listen on your computer, on a portable media device such as an ipod, or you can burn the files to a CD and listen on a regular stereo. In order to get podcasts onto your computer, you’ll need some podcatching software, such as %iTunes% or %Juice%. Alternately, you can listen to podcasts “streaming” in your browser. For more detailed instructions, see our %Guide for Listeners (wiki)% %(in English)%.

En podcast er en måte å automatisk laste den lydfiler til den datamaskin fra et spesifikt show, eller "feed". Du kan lytte på datamaskinen din, på en portabel media enhet, slik som en ipod, eller du kan brenne filene til en CD og høre på et vanlig stereo anlegg. For å få podcaster til din datamaskin, trenger du en podcatching maskinvare, som for eksempel iTuned eller Juice. Alternativt kan du høre på podcast "streaming" (direkteavspilling) i din nettleser. For mer detaljerte instruksjoner, se var Guide for lytter(wiki) på Engelsk.

Cast of Characters
| We’re all volunteers, and we’ve flipped traditional hierarchy upside down. The most important people in LibriVox are the readers, and everyone else works hard to help them make more audiobooks. We encourage everyone to do as much or as little as they like, and mostly if you have an idea and want to implement it, you’ll find lots of support. Here is a list of people you will run into and what they do (note: they are all volunteers):
|
TRANSLATE HERE
|
| readers: record chapters of public domain books
|
TRANSLATE HERE
|
| book coordinators: manage production of a particular book
|
TRANSLATE HERE
|
| meta coordinators: catalog completed books on the web
|
TRANSLATE HERE
|
| moderators: help the forum run smoothly
|
TRANSLATE HERE
|
| admins: try to make sure everyone has what they need
|
TRANSLATE HERE
|
How it Works
| Practically, here is how things work:
|
TRANSLATE HERE
|
| 1. a book coordinator posts a book in the New Projects Launch Pad Section.
|
TRANSLATE HERE
|
| 2. a meta coordinator claims the project and moves the thread to the appropriate forum.
|
TRANSLATE HERE
|
| 3. volunteers “claim” chapters to read.
|
TRANSLATE HERE
|
| 4. the readers record their chapters in digital format and upload them onto LibriVox's server.
|
TRANSLATE HERE
|
| 5. the book coordinator collects all the files of all the chapters.
|
TRANSLATE HERE
|
| 6. we check the files for technical problems in the Listeners Wanted section.
|
TRANSLATE HERE
|
| 7. the meta-coordinator enters the book into the catalog
|
TRANSLATE HERE
|
| 8. another public domain audiobook is made available for free.

|
| %Volunteering for LibriVox% is easy and does not require any experience with recording or audio engineering or acting or public speaking. All you need is a computer, some free recording software, and your own voice. We accept all volunteers in all languages, with all kinds of accents. You don’t need to audition or send us samples. We’ll accept you no matter what you sound like.

| Most readers use a microphone plugged into their computer, record with a free program called Audacity, edit out their mistakes and send their files through the Internet (easy instructions and easy uploaders available).

Basic Advice about Reading
| Volunteer for texts that you enjoy. Don’t volunteer out of duty, volunteer for the pleasure of reading a particular thing aloud to the world. Your pleasure will add a special quality to the recording and will increase the chances that you’ll read more!
|
TRANSLATE HERE
|
| Read the text before you record it - it helps to know what you’re reading. If you’re a wonderfully expressive reader who conveys the text well, you’ll also convey your confusion whenever you’re lost. Some folks will read over a page, record it, pause the recorder or save (safer), read over the next page, record that one, and so on. Suit yourself.
|
TRANSLATE HERE
|
| Allow pauses between sentences and paragraphs; take your time. Let your listener visualize.
|
TRANSLATE HERE
|
| Most readers need to e-n-u-n-c-i-a-t-e … every syllable, every letter sound. A relaxed steady pace helps you to form the full sounds of the words. But if you’re one of the exceptions, who naturally hyper-enunciates, then relax into a conversational style, as if the reader is there with you.
|
TRANSLATE HERE
|
| Try for a steady volume level by speaking up, as if your listener is sitting across a table from you, and keeping a steady distance from your mic (not closer, farther, closer). Or if you naturally speak through walls, find the sweet spot in relation to your mic.
|
TRANSLATE HERE
|
| Modulate your voice — give it life! But don’t over-modulate your voice — give it truth! Here’s a tip: Read from the beginning of the story, and when you reach the end, immediately record the first page or so again. Chances are, you’ll begin a bit stiff and self-conscious, but you’ll soon lose yourself in the story and become more naturally animated. By the end, you’re nicely warmed up, and if you record the beginning again right now, it won’t sound at all stiff or self-conscious.
|
TRANSLATE HERE
|
| Test first - make sure you’re not too close or too far from the microphone. Every time you record, say a couple sentences and check how it sounds.
|
TRANSLATE HERE
|
| Put your microphone at an angle to your mouth, so your breath doesn’t hit the mic full on (making p-p-p-plosives).
|
TRANSLATE HERE
|
| Turn off your phone, and shut your door — enjoy!
|
TRANSLATE HERE
|
| You might prefer recording in short sessions, taking breaks between, to avoid mental and vocal fatigue. (Combine the pieces into a single file during editing.)
|
TRANSLATE HERE
|
| When you make a mistake, pause a moment, and start again at the beginning of the sentence/paragraph — edit the mistake out later, after recording. Don’t just repeat a word or short phrase — that’ll be too hard to cut with during the edit.
|
TRANSLATE HERE
|
| If you want to improve your reading, edit your own work but don’t be a perfectionist, just keep on reading and editing — you’ll naturally begin to make small adjustments in your reading, and the whole process will become more and more enjoyable.

| Audio software

|
| LibriVox projects use .mp3 files (mono, 128Kpbs), and most folks use the free, open-source audio recording-editing software, Audacity.

| Microphone
|
TRANSLATE HERE
|
| Though many computers have built-in microphones, most volunteers find them inadequate. Try yours on %short texts% (poems, short stories, prime numbers, etc.) if you want to contribute right away while deciding what you think of the built-in mic quality. Most volunteers use USB microphones (headsets or desk mics) plugged into their computers for a balance of acceptable and affordable. Our wiki page on %User-Recommended Equipment% cuts to the chase.

| LibriVox Samples
|
TRANSLATE HERE
|
| So how good are the LibriVox readers? We’ll be honest: some are better than others, but what some of us lack in voice modulation skills, we usually make up for in love for the text we are reading. But, remember, we are all volunteers. Before we get to the samples, here is one of the best descriptions, we think, of what’s special about LibriVox (from Institute of the Future of the Book):
|
TRANSLATE HERE
|
| As a regular audiobook listener, I was struck by the fact that while most literary audiobooks are read by authors who tend to work hard at conveying a sense of character, the Librivox selections seemed to convey, more than anything, the reader’s passion for the text itself; ie, for the written word. Here at the Institute we’ve been spending a fair amount of time trying to figure out when a book loses it’s book-ness, and I’d argue that while some audiobooks blur the boundary between book and performance, the Librivox books remind us that a book reduced to a stream of digitally produced sound can still be very much a book.
|
TRANSLATE HERE
|
| So, judge for yourself. These are random samples (honest … OK randomish):

Cori reads: Sonnet 23

| Firstly, please remember that all LibriVox recordings are done by volunteers. No one is paid for recordings, no one is paid for editing, or cataloging or managing the project. Everything here is done by volunteers.

|
| The other thing to note is this: some of our readers are better than others. But our policy is to accept ANY reader who wishes to read for us. We have such a huge task ahead of us: to record all the books in the public domain! We can’t achieve that without an open door policy for everyone who wants to help. Plus, it’s part of the LibriVox way. We welcome anyone who wants to help. That’s how we got this far, and we want to go a lot further.
|
TRANSLATE HERE
|
| All that being said: WE DO CARE ABOUT THE QUALITY OF OUR RECORDINGS.
|
TRANSLATE HERE
|
| Our Proof Listening Process
|
TRANSLATE HERE
|
| We have put a proof-listening step into our process to try to catch problems in audio files (perhaps you would like to help? Visit the proof-listening thread on our forum). In this step we try to get all our audio checked before we upload and catalog (which for the record, is not an easy process). We try to catch things like long silences, repeated text, editing problems, volume problems, static etc. But we don’t really make comments on reading style — too fast/too slow, not enough oomph. For instance, we never say: “This reader is not good enough for LibriVox.” Though in some cases we may try to give some feedback to a particular reader, to give some advice on how they can improve.
|
TRANSLATE HERE
|
| So: Please do let us know if you have any problems with a recording you’ve heard, whether technical in nature, or even if it’s a style question. We’d like to know if there are unhappy listeners. If the file can be fixed we will try to fix it; but if the problem falls within the “LibriVox idiosyncrasy” zone, well we’ll let you know.
|
TRANSLATE HERE
|
| Also note: Project Gutenberg has a 99% accuracy target for its texts. On a 20 minute audio recording that would be equivalent to 12 seconds of errors. (Count to 12 and see how long that is). We don’t maintain such a specific target, but keep it in mind when sending us comments.
