Velma (velmalikevelvet) | 61 comments The following authors are actually one person: Lexi Boeger and Alexis Boeger.

I presume this needs the ministrations of a Super? Thanks!

No, any librarian can merge authors, as long as a GR Author Program member is not involved. I got this one.

Thank you, I'll remember that in case I ever run into the same problem again.

I'm not seeing the title associated with the 'Alexis Boeger' ID linked to the 'Lexi Boeger' page though; both Handspun Revolution and Intertwined: The Art of Handspun Yarn, Modern Patterns and Creative Spinning were penned by Lexi. Thanks!

Look at it this way and you will see both listings. It just takes a while for it to show up in the author profile listing.(caching issue).

I cleared my cache beforehand, so it must be a GR cache, not mine. good to know, thank you!

Yes, GR's cache. Author pages have a 24-48 hours cache.
