[Heb-NACO] Esther Adler warning

[Netanel Ganin]

Shalom shalom,

Word of warning, and you may want to check your own catalogs!

Esther Carlebach, the mid 19th and early 20th century German poet and
ancestor of Shlomo Carlebach has a UF of "Adler, Esther" in the NAF.

The trouble is there is another Esther Adler who is not in the NAF [though
I will be creating a record for Adler later today] who worked at some point
for the Jewish National Fund and has written MANY works published by them.
In OCLC many of the works written by this latter Adler have "Carlebach,
Esther" in the 100 field.

I also found an authority record for an illustrator of one of these works
citing "Carlebach, Esther" in a 670. [Marianne Aaron]

I'm going to enhance Carlebach's record with dates that will hopefully
prevent people from making this confusion in the future [though I'm not
sure how much people check dates in an 046 field before controlling a
heading]

Anyway as there are so many, I thought I should alert you folks in case you
wanted to check your catalog for this error

in solidarity,

Netanel Ganin
