AU Author

boyd in au

The AU field contains the names of personal authors, editors, illustrators, and compilers as cited in the original publication. Look up names in the Index if you are uncertain of the spelling of an author's name.

Using the Index to Find an Author

To locate an author, look up the last name in the Index. A segment of the Index beginning with the author's last name will be listed; included are all variations of the name that appear in the database. For example, if you look up peterson, you will find peterson and peterson-da. Select and search for the appropriate variations and you will retrieve all documents written by that author. For chapter records, the author of the book from which the chapter is taken is included in the Source (SO) field and must be searched as "in so."
