Hi Rosarie,

Yes, the sidebar facets / search filter fields can be customized however
you want them to be.  By default, the Author facet includes "dc.creator"
and "dc.contributor.author" only (and no other dc.contributor.* fields
should be included by default). But you could update it to include
additional metadata fields, or remove existing fields from the list. More
on this at:
https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC6x/Discovery#Discovery-Searchfilters&sidebarfacetsCustomization

For the Author fields specifically, you can modify them in your Discovery
configuration at:
https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/blob/dspace-6_x/dspace/config/spring/api/discovery.xml#L378

After updating these facets, you will need to reindex your entire site by
running "[dspace]/bin/dspace index-discovery -b"
