Authors

*When working on a set of a particular faculty member's works, always handle that person as a UMBC author weather their affiliation is given on the work as UMBC or not.

1. Open the record and work. Determine which author list will copy and paste most cleanly.

2. Copy and paste the author list to Word and clean it up. Pasting using "text only" can help clean up images embedded in the list of authors. You can use find and replace to remove digits and paragraph marks by clicking more and using the special drop-down.

3. If there are more than 20 authors, in the description column, put "Authors:" followed by the full cleaned list of authors, and in the authors that are et al column, put "et al".

4. If there are less than 20 authors, copy and paste the cleaned list of authors to the authors column.

5. If there are more than 20 authors, reduce the author list in Word down to the first 4 authors plus all UMBC authors.

Copy and paste the author list into the author column.

   1. Search the author in the UMBC directory to find affiliation and and status if you don't have it already.
