If you finish Chapter 3 of Pride and Prejudice and choose audio section 03, the matching numbers can lead you past the place you wanted. In the LibriVox recording mapped here, section 03 is labelled Chapter 6. Sections and chapters are different numbering systems, even though both appear to count your progress through the same novel.
The useful starting point is your next unread chapter. This guide gives you a complete map between one LibriVox catalogue’s 37 sections and the 61 chapters in its currently linked Project Gutenberg text. You can use it in either direction without reading plot summaries. It identifies the right labelled section or chapter, while leaving any position inside an audio section for you to establish in your own listening.
Scope: This is a catalogue-label and text-structure check, completed October 22, 2026. No audio was heard, no player was tested, and no internal timestamps or automatic synchronization were verified. The map is not a sentence-by-sentence comparison or a claim that the current ebook exactly matches the spoken recording.
Check that these are the versions you have
The audio source is LibriVox’s Pride and Prejudice catalogue page with the catalogue date March 14, 2006 and the credit “LibriVox Volunteers.” Its numbered section list supplies the ranges in the map below. Use that exact page as the identifier, rather than the title alone or a cover that might appear on another recording.
For the written source, the catalogue’s Online text link leads to Project Gutenberg eBook 1342. The current text reports an update of September 29, 2026. The chapter links below point to that ebook’s illustrated HTML version, not to every downloadable format or another publisher’s edition.
That date difference matters. A recording catalogued in 2006 does not establish what every sentence of a text updated in 2026 will say. The verified connection is the catalogue’s link and the correspondence of its chapter labels with the current text’s numbered chapters. Keep the edition information with your bookmark if exact wording matters to you.
If your audio list has a different number of entries, do not rename them mentally to fit this map. It may be another recording or a different packaging of audio. Return to the identified catalogue and compare the chapter ranges actually shown. A matching book title does not settle a mismatch in the structure you are using.

Read the map in either direction
For text to audio, find the chapter you want to begin in the middle column, then read left to its audio section. For audio to text, find your catalogue section in the left column and choose the appropriate chapter link in the middle. Every numbered text chapter appears in exactly one of these published ranges.
The right-hand column answers a narrower question: where should you continue in the text after completing the entire section? Do not use it merely because that section is open or partly played. In a section containing several chapters, doing so could skip the unread remainder.
Each text link includes an ordinary number and the Roman numeral used in the ebook. The table contains chapter numbers only, with no scene descriptions or plot milestones. Audio section numbers refer to the catalogue, not to a promise about what any particular app will display.
Move from the text to the audio
First decide whether you completed the chapter or stopped inside it. “At Chapter 20” is ambiguous: it could mean that you have just opened it, are halfway through it, or finished it yesterday. Write either “next chapter 20” or “completed chapter 20.” Those two notes point to different next steps.
After finishing any of Chapters 1–60, add one to obtain the next unread chapter, then look that number up in the map. If it is the first chapter listed for its audio section, you have a clean labelled boundary. If it is the second or third chapter, the desired position lies within a combined section rather than at its beginning.
For an internal boundary, this guide cannot supply a minute and second. Do not divide the section’s duration equally among its chapters. The label tells you how chapters are grouped, not how long each takes. You can locate the transition through your own listening, or start at an earlier known point and accept a little repetition rather than risk a jump ahead.
Stopping halfway through a written chapter adds another unknown. The table can identify the containing section, but it cannot translate a page position into a spoken sentence. Preserve a short private phrase from the passage you actually reached, or your own description of that stopping point. Keep the note limited to what you have already read.
When you cannot remember whether you finished a chapter, use the last boundary you can confidently name. Reopen the following chapter and check material you already recognize. Treat an uncertain final page as unfinished rather than consulting a synopsis of the next chapter: a summary may answer the location question by revealing the very development you hoped to reach unspoiled.
If you often alternate formats, choose a future stopping point where a listed audio range ends. You need not change your reading schedule around every file. But when two nearby stopping places are equally convenient, a shared chapter boundary leaves less to reconstruct later.
Move from the audio to the text
Begin by identifying the catalogue section, not simply the number most visible in your player. Once you have matched its label, distinguish “completed section” from “currently listening to section.” The first can give you a next-chapter boundary; the second gives you only a range until you establish more.
If you have completed a whole section and confirmed that you reached the end of its labelled chapters, the table’s last column supplies the next text chapter. Open that chapter directly. There is no need to estimate what percentage of the written book corresponds to your listening progress.
If the section is unfinished, use what you personally know from listening. When you have identified the chapter already reached, choose its text link and find your place within that chapter. If you cannot identify it, the earliest chapter in the section is the conservative restart point. You may repeat material, but you will not deliberately select a later chapter on the basis of an unsupported guess.
A saved local timestamp can help you return to the audio you were using. It does not by itself tell the text where to open. Keep it paired with the section label, and distinguish elapsed time within that section from elapsed time for a whole-book file. A bare time without its frame of reference is easy to misread when you return later.
Work through the boundary cases
Finished Chapter 3 versus finished Chapter 2
After finishing Chapter 3, your next unread chapter is 4. The map places Chapters 4–5 in section 02, so the start of that labelled section is the appropriate handoff. Choosing section 03 because you finished Chapter 3 would instead select the entry labelled Chapter 6.
After finishing Chapter 2, however, you still need Chapter 3, which belongs to section 01 alongside Chapters 1–2. Section 02 is too far ahead. Stay with section 01 and locate the remaining chapter yourself, or replay from an earlier known point. This is why “advance one audio file” is not a general rule for a completed text chapter.
A single-chapter section in the middle
Section 12 is labelled Chapter 20. If Chapter 20 is next, this is a simple labelled entry point. If you have completed that chapter, your next target is Chapter 21 in section 13. The simplicity comes from this particular boundary, not from any fixed numerical offset between the two formats.
The three-chapter section 14
Section 14 groups Chapters 23, 24 and 25. A reader who completed Chapter 22 can begin at the section’s starting boundary. A reader who completed Chapter 23 still needs Chapters 24–25 inside that same section. A reader who completed Chapter 25 can move to section 15, labelled Chapter 26.
In the reverse direction, merely being in section 14 does not establish which of those three text chapters to open. The table gives you all three links rather than pretending to know your progress. Only when the whole labelled range is finished does the right-hand column’s Chapter 26 become the next unread chapter.
Chapter 35 inside section 21
Section 21 is labelled Chapters 34–35. If you have completed Chapter 34 in the ebook, the remaining Chapter 35 is an internal audio boundary, not the start of section 22. Conversely, completing the whole labelled section brings you to Chapter 36 in the text. These are distinct handoffs even though both involve section 21.
The final combined section
Section 37 groups Chapters 60–61. Finishing Chapter 60 does not mean that the numbered novel is finished; Chapter 61 remains in that same section. After completing all of Chapter 61, there is no Chapter 62 in this text. The table makes no statement about closing announcements or other spoken material within the recording.

Keep Roman numerals and front matter separate
The linked ebook labels its chapters with Roman numerals. The map puts Arabic numbers beside them so you can recognize, for example, Chapter 20 as XX, Chapter 34 as XXXIV, and Chapter 61 as LXI. These are two ways of naming a chapter, not two different chapter sequences.
Do not confuse a Roman-numbered page in the preliminary material with a chapter heading. Look for the chapter link or heading itself. Similarly, an illustration caption mentioning a chapter is not a reliable record of where you stopped reading the narrative.
The current Gutenberg HTML includes a preface and an illustration list before Chapter I. The preface discusses later events. If you are avoiding spoilers, use the direct chapter links here instead of reading through the preliminary commentary to find your place.
If a chapter link opens at an unexpected place, verify the visible heading before continuing. The number and Roman numeral in the table give you a second way to identify the destination in the text’s own contents list. Do not assume that landing somewhere in the document means you have reached the intended chapter, especially if you opened a different saved copy.
The audio catalogue has no separately labelled preface, illustration list, prologue or bonus section. That observation concerns its list of entries only. It does not prove that a particular introduction or closing statement is absent from the audio files. Do not add or subtract an assumed introductory track when translating the published section numbers.
Why page numbers and percentages cannot complete the map
A chapter boundary is the unit verified here. A page number, reading percentage or audio percentage answers a different question, and this comparison supplies no conversion between them. Keep those indicators as local reminders if useful, but do not let them override a known chapter.
For example, the middle of a two-chapter section is not established as the start of its second chapter. Even if the chapters look similar in length on screen, that does not supply a measured spoken transition. Nor does being halfway through the numbered section list establish that you are halfway through the narrative.
The same caution applies to total duration. A whole-book elapsed time cannot be treated as a section-local timestamp without establishing the file structure and the relevant boundaries. This guide does not supply either kind of timestamp. An honest unknown is more useful than a precise-looking time that sends you beyond material you wanted to experience first.
Leave yourself a small handoff record
Use the same few fields whenever you switch formats. Record the version identifiers once, then update the stopping point. The essential distinction is between what is finished and what comes next. You should be able to read the note a week later without remembering which format you were using when you wrote it.
- Versions
- LibriVox catalogue dated March 14, 2006; Project Gutenberg eBook 1342, text update September 29, 2026.
- Last completed text chapter
- [Enter chapter number, or “none yet.”]
- Next unread position
- [Enter next chapter, or “inside Chapter …” with a private stopping-point note.]
- Audio section and state
- [Enter catalogue section number and label; mark “not started,” “in progress” or “completed.”]
- Optional local timestamp
- [Enter only a time you observed; name the file or section and whether the clock is section-local or whole-book.]
A completed-boundary example can be as short as “Completed Chapter 25; next Chapter 26; audio section 15 not started.” It needs no timestamp. An interior-chapter handoff needs a little more: identify the containing section and mark the exact place as unresolved until you establish it. Do not turn an estimate into a confirmed bookmark merely to fill every field.
Make the update when you stop, not after opening the other format. An open chapter or a selected section records a destination, which might be a place you meant to start rather than one you completed. Preserve the previous confirmed boundary until you have actually advanced, so an interrupted handoff does not quietly become a false progress report.
Keep this record private if it includes a passage or personal reading notes. For a shared reading check-in, “completed through Chapter 25” communicates a spoiler boundary without describing what happens there. Someone using another audio edition can still understand your progress through the text, even when their file numbers differ.
If something still does not line up
Stop at the last point you recognize and recheck the edition and label before moving farther ahead. Confirm that the number you copied is a catalogue section number, that your text is eBook 1342, and that you have not mistaken an illustration reference or preliminary page for a chapter heading.
If the labels agree but the wording seems different, this map cannot adjudicate the difference. The historic recording and the current text have not been compared sentence by sentence here. Preserve your last confirmed location rather than declaring either source incomplete. A genuine text-to-audio comparison would be needed to resolve that question.
The practical rule remains small: identify the next unread chapter, find its published section range, and keep any unverified position inside that range visibly uncertain. That gives you a repeatable way to switch formats without relying on matching numbers, plot summaries or invented precision.
For the separate question of what recording credits mean, see the guide to dual, duet and full-cast audiobook editions.
Source and method note: The 37 catalogue ranges were checked against the linked text’s 61 chapter anchors; the ranges cover Chapters 1–61 once, without gaps or overlaps. Chapter links retain the source’s actual capitalization. This structural verification does not fulfill a listening-based edition comparison, an accessibility test, a player walkthrough or a synchronization test.
