(1969-1980)
“Michael Kalen Smith is in the history and social science division of the Dallas Public Library. He is a professional bibliographer and indexer. Alistair Maeer produced the digital file forthe index of volumes 1-12 which led to it being placed on the Internet.”
and Janette Lee Irving – Volumes 13-17
(1981-1985)
"Janette LeeIrving holds a Masters Degree in geography from Georgia State University,
and now manages a consulting firm in Atlanta.”
Alphabetization is letter-by-letter. Non-English personal names are alphabetized under articles but not under prepositions (e.g. La Cosa, Juan de; Duisberg, Jan van). Compound surnames are treated as single words (e.g. Rodíguez de Fonseca, Juan). Original (“native”) forms of names are preferred to Latinized forms. However, numerous exceptions to these rules occur as a result of emphasis on common usage: thus, “Columbus” instead of “Colón,” Pedro Álvares Cabral alphabetized under “Cabral,” and Peter Martyr under “Peter.”
