Netanel,

Thanks so much. Would it be possible to add dates to the authority record for 
Esther Carlebach, the German poet? I see that the German Wikipedia has her 
dates as 1853-1920.

Thanks again,
Rita Lifton

Subject: [Heb-NACO] Esther Adler warning

Shalom shalom,

Word of warning, and you may want to check your own catalogs!

Esther Carlebach, the mid 19th and early 20th century German poet and ancestor 
of Shlomo Carlebach has a UF of "Adler, Esther" in the NAF.

The trouble is there is another Esther Adler who is not in the NAF [though I 
will be creating a record for Adler later today] who worked at some point for 
the Jewish National Fund and has written MANY works published by them. In OCLC 
many of the works written by this latter Adler have "Carlebach, Esther" in the 
100 field.

I also found an authority record for an illustrator of one of these works 
citing "Carlebach, Esther" in a 670. [Marianne Aaron]

I'm going to enhance Carlebach's record with dates that will hopefully prevent 
people from making this confusion in the future [though I'm not sure how much 
people check dates in an 046 field before controlling a heading]

Anyway as there are so many, I thought I should alert you folks in case you 
wanted to check your catalog for this error


in solidarity,

Netanel Ganin
