also is there anyway to make his name searchable without using the funky font thing?

(Except for the combining, there's a librarian note about a different content.)

I have this version http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/80... in front of me and there is definitely no space between Maryjane

But if you view this version of the same book there is a space in her name: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/83...

I don't know the correct spelling of first name/s Maryjane or Mary Jane

Catalina | 2066 comments Re 19: According to her site should be Mary Jane Begin(also when i searched with google Maryjane it corrected me hihihi): http://www.maryjanebegin.com/index2.html, but I do find different records of her name both on Amazon and WorldCat...gotta search some more first

My vote is to match her website. I think they should all be under one author page at least.

Vicky (librovert) | 2462 comments The Library of Congress has her listed as both Mary Jane Begin and Maryjane Begin-Callanan.

Even where she's listed as Maryjane, the covers mostly use Mary Jane.

So, I went ahead a merged them into Mary Jane. If anyone comes across a reason it should be different we can change it, but at least they are in one place.
