[Studiotalk] Multiple narrators

[Coffman, Linden]

Good day everyone,

I was wondering about using multiple narrators for certain titles or types of books.  I have experimented with using a couple of narrators for a collection of short stories but that is the extent of my experience.  I know that some have used several readers for different articles in magazines or journals.  How does that work for you and your patrons?  What about other types of books?   Would several different narrators work for a collection of essays or biography collections work?  What brought this to mind for me is a large book that I would like to do (500 plus pages) on presidential campaigns in Indiana from Lincoln to Obama.  Could I use multiple narrators reading different chapters and still have good continuity for the recording?  I'm just trying to make use of more volunteer narrators as well finding a way increasing productivity.  Any feedback would be appreciated.

Thanks,
