<p class="MsoNormal">The heading for the author in LC’s and OCLC Name Authority file is: Eshel, Einat Baram.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Checking ULI – we can find 20 Israeli libraries: 19 libraries entered the author as Bar’am Eshel, Enat and only one library as Eshel, Enat Bar’am [it might be that that library has a US born catalog librarian

<p class="MsoNormal">BTW – Our colleague, Racheli Leket Mor of Arizona State University, has also a compound name: her maiden name is Leket (see NAR no 98093959), Mor is Tsafrir’s (Racheli’s husband) last name, but she goes as Leket Mor and not as Mor.<o:p></o:p></p>
