DocumentAuthor should capture author name as published

Open jennifer-richards opened this issue 9 months ago • 0 comments

Description

The DocumentAuthor model links a Document with a Person, but that person's name may change over time. Furthermore, the name format in the Document may be different from the Person name even at the time of publication.

Should preserve the name that actually appears in the document as a field on the DocumentAuthor model so that metadata can accurately reflect the document contents.
