Re: [LegacyUG] Book done by compiler, NOT author or editor
Is this a book authored by an agency? There is an option for that. Or, is it anonymous?

Re: [LegacyUG] Book done by compiler, NOT author or editor
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 Arnold At 07:08 AM 9/17/2009, you wrote: Is this a book authored by an agency? There is an option for that.

Re: [LegacyUG] Book done by compiler, NOT author or editor
What I do is this... I put in the compiler's name as the author but I put a comma after his last name and put compiler so when it shows up it looks like this... Peter Anderson, compiler It works like a charm! michele - Original Message - From: Arnold Sprague aspra...@chicagobooth.edu To: LegacyUserGroup@legacyfamilytree.com Sent: Thursday, September 17, 2009 9:32 AM Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Book done by compiler, NOT author or editor michele, The book is Protestant Marriages from Almonte Region, Ontario (1817-1943).

Re: [LegacyUG] Book done by compiler, NOT author or editor
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 - Original Message - From: Arnold Sprague aspra...@chicagobooth.edu To: LegacyUserGroup@legacyfamilytree.com Sent: Thursday, September 17, 2009 9:32 AM Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Book done by compiler, NOT author or editor michele, The book is Protestant Marriages from Almonte Region, Ontario (1817-1943).

Simply chose whichever template seems most appropriate, assuming a known editor and at the Master Source level you can override the Bibliography to change the word editor to compiler. Then at Source Detail level you can override the Footnote/Endnote citation to change editor to compiler there. -- Jenny M Benson Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp To unsubscribe: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/LegacyLists.asp
Re: [LegacyUG] Book done by compiler, NOT author or editor
I would put whatever name connected with the document (publisher, government name), I can find and put in the field what I picked and why. Changing the 'category' would not help, because changing author to compiler will not be documented, in a list of books, but naming the author 'Bricks Publishing Co. as compiler' will always note the variance. There will always be something that refuses to fit organized rules.
