<html><body><div style="font-family: tahoma,new york,times,serif; font-size: 12pt; color: #000000"><div>Hello, </div><div>A lot of authors of popular series have died (Robert B. Parker in particular) and other writers have picked up the deceased author's series and continued to write it. Looking at our catalog, it looks like half of the libraries are under the original series author and half are under the new author's name. Currently, ours are strictly under the author's last name but they are numbered as part of the same series. However, I am considering putting them under the series author instead of the book author and I wanted to know what other libraries are doing... </div><div>How are you cataloging these new additions to the series? Are you putting it under the new author in the fiction section because they are technically the author of the books and patrons might discover other books by that author at the same time? Or are you putting it under the original author that created the series because patrons would expect to find the whole series in the same section? Or are you putting the whole series under the series title to keep them together? Or are you doing something completely different?</div><div><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Thank you in advance,</span></div><div><span></span><div>Janelle<br></div><div><br></div><div>Janelle Martin<br>Head of Fiction<br>Marguerite deAngeli Library<br>Lapeer District Library</div><div>921 W.
