<p class="MsoNormal">Introduction.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Good day all,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Let me introduce myself. My name is Christopher Duran and I am the new Audio/Visual Assistant here at The California State Library (Braille and Talking Books Section) located in Sacramento Ca.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We are currently in the process of reviving the Talking Books program and recording studio and our main goal here is to get the studio up and running again and start pumping out books. The studio is still in operation but the projects
have been limited. We have converted to HABC for both recording and markup. <o:p>
</o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> I am new to NLS and Talking Books though I’ve been doing audio production for many years. In a sense I am and BTBL is starting from “scratch.” I have been reading a lot of literature regarding policies and procedures. Although I come to
the table with audio engineering experience, this is a completely different animal to me.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">So in closing I just wanted to reach out and say that if anyone has any advice or comments regarding volunteer recruitment, recording, etc. I would love to hear from you, including any tips for an enthusiastic newcomer to NLS Network local
recording.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">My schedule is currently 7:30AM to 4PM Pacific Monday through Friday. Thanks for your time everyone and I look forward to hearing from you all<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Sincerely <o:p></o:p></p>
