Goodreads Librarians Group discussion

The book Struggle to Be the Sun Again Introducing Asian Women's Theology has 2 editions -- one was listed by Chung Hyun Kyung and one by by Hyun Kyung Chung. I checked the covers and merged the authors to "Chung Hyun Kyung" because that's what's on both covers. But then I checked WorldCat and it lists the author as "Hyun Kyung Chung."

What does the Library of Congress have?

Oh, good call.

LOC:
Personal Name: Chung, Hyun Kyung.

Which on GR would be Hyun Kyung Chung.

Yup. And we generally use LoC as our arbiter.

Okay, I changed the author to Hyun Kyung Chung. Should I include a Librarian Note in the Author profile in case anyone has the instinct I had to change it to match the book cover?

Sounds like a good plan.

Done.

Great. (I removed it from the viewable-to-all-users field, though.)

Oh, right, good call. (I was still in disambig-author mindset.)

:D I guessed that, actually.
