Hi, is there a straightforward way to highlight (either in bold or different color), local Authors in the Bibliography? We're using Biblio to manage the catalog of Publications for our Department, however would like to emphasize our academics vs others who have collaborated on papers. We've tried linking local Authors to their Drupal IDs, but not seeing how to distinguish linked Authors from others..

That's an interesting idea, and if by "local authors" you mean authors with links to DrupalIDs, then it would be fairly easy for me to add a css tag to these authors with could then be styled any way you like.

Yep.. that's the idea.. When we publish the institutional Bibliography, it's useful to highlight the resident Authors.. That would be a nice enhancement for us..

OK, shouldn't be a problem. I'll report back on this thread when it's done.

I appreciate that this was not submitted as a "high priority" feature request, but any thoughts as yet on how we might accomplish this enhancement?

It's done now (http://drupal.org/cvs?commit=478608), the next 6.x-1.x-dev build and subsequent releases will have a "biblio-local-author" class selector on the "a" element of the local authors...

<a class="biblio-local-author" href="...">foo</a>

Great... Thank you again for the responsiveness..
Just to make sure I understand the process for implementing this functionality.. Once the code changes have been applied to: /modules/biblio/biblio_theme.inc. Where should the relevant css definitions be added for the "biblio-local-author"

You can add the css to the biblio.css file (so long as it follows the ".biblio-authors a" definition) like this...

a.biblio-local-author {
  font-weight: bold;
}
