I think it is good practice to list the author name in the catalog the same way it appears on the title page. Easy, straightforward, and a pain in the * for people who like normalized databases....
We should still link to a record that carries details for the author, and actually tells us that the author of Book A is the same as that of Book B, even though the name is different. Jeroen.
