Pages translated into [Farsi]
We are on the way to translate important parts of our website to several languages. Please understand that this is work-intensive and 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.

ما در حال ترجمه بخشهای مهم سایت به زبان های مختلف هستیم. لطفا این نکته را در نظر داشته باشید که بروز نگاه داشتن دایمی صفحات ترجمه شده برابر با نسخه ی اصلی ،کاری مشکل است .علاوه بر این به طور غیر قابل اجتناب،اغلب لینک هااز صفحات ترجمه شده به صفحاتی با محتوای انگلیسی هدایت می شوند.Frontpage

LibriVox Podcasts
A podcast is a way to automatically download audiofiles 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).

What We Do
LibriVox volunteers record chapters of books in the public domain, and then we release the audio files back onto the net for free. All our audio is in the public domain, so you may use it for whatever purpose you wish.
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.
We operate almost exclusively through Internet communications on our forum, where all your questions will be answered by our friendly community. We have a flat structure, designed to let people do just what they want to do.
For more detailed information, see our FAQ.
We’d like your help. Click to learn about volunteering for LibriVox.
Resources and Partners
We get most of our texts from Project Gutenberg, and the Internet Archive and ibiblio.org host our audio files (for free!).
Our annual budget is $0, and for the moment we don’t need any money. We’ll let you know if that changes. In the mean time, perhaps you might consider supporting our partners: Project Gutenberg, Internet Archive.

About Listening to LibriVox
LibriVox audiobooks are free (*). You may use them for whatever purpose you like. Click here for information about our public domain license. Click here to hear some samples of LibriVox recordings.
There are several options for listening. The first step is to get the audio files (mp3 or ogg vorbis) into your own computer. There are two main ways to do this:
1. Thrice-weekly Podcast
We podcast one book at a time, with three audio installments a week. To subscribe to our podcast, copy and paste this URL into your podcatcher:
(no need to translate)
If you use iTunes, the subscription will happen automatically if you click on this URL:
itpc://librivox.org/podcast.xml
(no need to translate)
2. Catalog
Visit our catalog and download books you wish to listen to. You can search the catalog page, browse the catalog, or use our advanced search options.
Once you find a book you like, there are a few options to listen, including:
Download the zip file of the entire book
You can download a “zip” file that contains all the individual files of an entire book. To do that:
“right-click/save as” the “zip file of the entire book” onto your hard drive
once it is downloaded (it might take a while) double click the zip file, to open it
then use a media player (itunes, winamp, windows media player) to play the files
Subscribe in itunes
You can download an entire book using the subscribe feature in iTunes. To do that:
click on the “subscribe in iTunes” link from the catalog page
this will launch itunes (say “yes” if your computer asks), and import the whole book into iTunes
In iTunes, under “Podcasts,” you should see: “LibriVox: the-book-title …” Click the little black triangle to the left of the title to see all the chapters. Click the “get” button by each to download it.
For more detailed instructions, see Subscribe in iTunes
Now that you’ve got some of the mp3 or ogg files in your computer, you can listen to them in several ways. You can listen through your computer speakers using your favorite audio player. You can load the files into an iPod or other portable audio player and listen when and where you like. You can burn the files to an audio cd and listen to them in the car or on your home stereo.
For more detailed instructions, see our User Guide to Listening.
If you have any troubles, please contact kayray, with subject line: “LibriVox help.”
NOTE that our files are free and public domain in the USA, but not necessarily everywhere in the world. To read more about why that is, see our Public Domain page.
How to volunteer

Volunteering for LibriVox
LibriVox volunteers read and record chapters of books in the public domain (books no longer under copyright), and make them available for free on the Internet. Practically, this means we record books published before 1923. All our recordings (including yours, if you volunteer for us) are also donated into the public domain.
We record books in all languages.
You do not need any prior experience to volunteer for LibriVox, nor do you need to audition or send us samples. All you need is your voice, some free software, your computer, and maybe an inexpensive microphone.
All LibriVox activity (book selection, project management, discussion, etc) happens on our Forum, and you’ll need to register there to join us. Our forum members are a friendly bunch, and questions will be answered there quickly (much more quickly than if you send us an email!).
We do suggest you read the document below, before registering and posting on the Forum, to get an idea of how everything works.

About Recording
Many LibriVox volunteers have never recorded anything, certainly not audiobooks. If you are new to recording, you’ll find many helpful people on the forum who will help you get yourself set up. Here is an overview, About Recording for LibriVox.
LibriVox Project Types
We have a number of different types of projects:
collaborative: many volunteers contribute chapters of a long text
solo: one volunteer reads an entire book
short works (prose and poetry): short works and poetry!
dramatic works: “actors” record parts, all edited together.
other languages: projects in languages other than English.
Navigating the Forum
The Forums are split into three main sections:
About LibriVox
info about LibriVox, including our FAQ
Books (Volunteer for Reading & Other Things)
This section includes:
Book Suggestions (discuss books you’d like to record)
Readers Wanted (where projects needing readers are listed)
Going Solo (you’ll need to do a collaborative recording first)
Listeners & Editors Wanted (our proof-listening process)
Volunteer for Other Projects (other types of projects)
Help, Discussion, & Suggestions
For your questions, news and general chatter.
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):
readers: record chapters of public domain books
book coordinators: manage production of a particular book
meta coordinators: catalog completed books on the web
moderators: help the forum run smoothly
admins: try to make sure everyone has what they need
How it Works
Practically, here is how things work:
1. a book coordinator posts a book in the Readers Wanted Section.
2. volunteers “claim” chapters to read.
3. the readers record their chapters in digital format.
4. the book coordinator collects all the files of all the chapters.
5. the book coordinator sends the collected files to a meta coordinator.
6. we check the files for technical problems in the Listeners Wanted section.
7. the book coordinator sends the collected, corrected files to a meta coordinator.
8. another public domain audiobook is made available for free.
Other Information
There are many, many other things you can do to help, so please feel free to jump into the Forums.
