By 'blanket' I mean anon, multiple, several, n/a, etc. I believe that those blanket authors should never be used. That's my opinion. I do see Legacy Libraries that use them and I'm wondering if there is a reason for it that I am missing. When is it 'Good' to use 'blanket' authors? 3jbd1Collectorator's sent me a few examples of this, and I think it's fair to say that where there is not an author of the book, or it's written anonymously, &c., there shouldn't be anything in the author field. In the case of multiple authors, there should be a main author (use a library record to find this) and then the others can be added in the "Other Authors" field. If anyone has questions about this, just ask! | AboutThis topic is not marked as primarily about any work, author or other topic. TouchstonesNo touchstones |
