Name of creator (if known): If the creator's name is not already established in ArchivesSpace, search in OCLC for an authority record for it. If there isn't an authority record, and it's not clear how best to formulate the name, look it up in reference sources to see how the person/organization is known. If the name isn't there, use the form of name given in the manuscript or collection itself. If it doesn't appear in the material, search in OCLC's WorldCat to see how it appears there. If it's not in any of those places, use your best judgment to formulate the name.
