Flyin' Wretch (rienfleche) | 4 comments Hi,

Apologies if I break standard procedure in some way - it wasn't immediately obvious to me how I should format a request like this.

José Medina, a philosopher, recently released a book titled The Epistemology of Resistance: Gender and Racial Oppression, Epistemic Injustice, and Resistant Imaginations. However, this book, along with some of his other works, is under an author named "Jos Medina", which seems to be a clear error. Would a librarian mind fixing this?

Thanks!

Jozef Nakielski (jozef_nakielski) | 100 comments Something more to this , when i put Jos Medina in search there's some strange authors names come up. There seems to be some confusion about how to enter the e on the name and a few have a question mark

This exactly the right place. The incorrect profile has been merged into the correct existing one, and the duplicate books have been combined.

It's José Toribio Medina, actually. The accented e often gets lost.

It's always ok to let another librarian take over if you're not sure what needs doing. :)
