[LM_NET] Copyright Law regarding recording of published books

[Toni Buzzeo <tonibuzzeo@TONIBUZZEO.COM>]

Hello Colleagues,

Is it legal for a technology coordinator to create an audiobook 
library by using Garageband to create podcast readings of published 
books?  If she seeks permission from the author, might she then do so?

Thanks,
Toni
