actually, you have to put it after the first name
It will print like this...
Anderson, Peter, compiler
Or, you could put "compiled by" in front of Anderson...
compiled by Anderson, Peter
Either way it will work

michele,
The book is "Protestant Marriages from Almonte & Region, Ontario
(1817-1943)."
It very clearly states, "Compiled by Peter Anderson."
Per EE, page 668, it does *none* of the things required to have the
status of "author." It does no more than show marriage names and
dates. This is not meant to be a put-down at all. It is over 370
pages of helpful information. I would like to show it as a compiled work

Is this a book authored by an agency? There is an option for
that. Or, is it anonymous? You could chose the "author not known"
option.

Subject: [LegacyUG] Book done by compiler, NOT author or editor
I need to source a book which is clearly NOT done by an author or an
editor, per "Evidence Explained" (EE), by Elizabeth Shown Mills. (See
12.8, Author's Role: Compiler or Author, page 668.)
Legacy's SourceWriter, however, ONLY allows me to enter an author or
editor, if I choose to use SourceWriter for a book.
Is there a way for me to override the text (change author/editor to
compiler) when Legacy shows the source?
I prefer to use EE and SourceWriter; so please let's NOT digress into
discussions as to perceived shortcomings of either.
Thank you,
Arnold
