Author searches allow you to find materials by means of a name. Names include persons, organizations
("United States Congress"), and meetings ("Strategic Arms Limitation Talks"). Author searches find persons
or groups having some form of responsibility for the creation of a work. Examples of relationships between
a name and a work include author, editor, translator, narrator, and composer.

Search Tip: If you are looking for materials about a person, organization or meeting, use a
subject search.
