Combining anthology questions

[Nita]

I discovered I had two of the exact same book on my to-read shelf. When I went to investigate and combine, I found these two different records:

This is the original record.

This one had this librarian note attached to it:

"This book title would not appear under Lora Leigh's name and people were adding "A Jaguar's Tale" as the name of the book. It would appear under the other authors, so I recreated it with Lora's name first so it would be with her book; hence, no ISBN. Any questions, please drop a PM to me. Thanks!"

My questions are - Is that how we would normally handle that kind of situation with an anthology? And if it is, shouldn't they be combined? And if they are supposed to be combined, how do you combine books that aren't under the same author?

Thanks!

Absolutely not. The two should be merged, which can be done if you shift the correct author to the primary slot. (Let me know if you need help with that.)

And the librarian who created the note is incorrect. Books with a secondary author do show up on the secondary author's list.

That's what I figured. Just wanted to double check. I had no problems shifting the authors and combining them. Thanks for the help!
