Hi Galen, folks, Thanks for the update!
----------------------------------- Here's a search that should show a bit better: 1. Search our Blanchester Library for books from John Sandford http://blanchester.cool-cat.org/eg/opac/results?fi%3Aformat=&query=Sandford%2C+John.&qtype=author&locg=111 The results are mixed, but if you look at the hit for "Uncaged" you will see: Sandford, John, 1944 February 23- 2. Now if I select that particular title: http://blanchester.cool-cat.org/eg/opac/record/930326?query=Sandford%2C%20John.;qtype=author;locg=111 The results are: Sandford, John, 1944- Cook, Michele. ----------------------------------- I'm not a cataloger, so maybe the full date is a nonstandard use? I checked the authors.tt2 file(s), but wasn't sure--thinking maybe it might be something else? I checked the bugs list as well, but didn't see anything directly related...

I tried doing an author search for "Ernie Pyle" in your catalog, and am not seeing hits that include the author's full birthdate (which aren't commonly found in name headings).
