Authors




Besides books and magazines, Alfa allows to manage authors, publishers and series. For each of them you can fill in a card with title/name, image and description. For authors you can also enter birth and death dates, link to author's web page. The image can be created from file on your computer or added from built-in Bing Image Search.



You can add, edit and delete authors in the Library Explorer (left sidebar). There you can also merge authors, if you find duplicates. To merge authors - just drag one author on another, and the remaining author will automatically replace the duplicate author in all book cards.

When you enter data to a Book Card you can select authors, publishers and series from the appropriate lists.
