Description

Many of the biblio resources we use have organizations as authors and the display looks weird. How can we fix that? Is there a way around display of the author name?

If I understand correctly, you don't want to display Corporate/organization type authors? You might want to try some of the different styles, ama, chicago, mla and vancouver don't list any corporate authors.

No, I want to show the organization but the view now puts it in last name, first initial--which turns organizational names into gobbledygook. is it simply a matter of changing the view?

OK, now I see what you are getting at.

I just fixed that issue and committed it to CVS. This only applies to CSE and APA styles since the others don't do anything with corporate authors (something which will have to be fixed as some point). You can test the fix in the next build of the -dev version.

Ron.
