Any thought to adding a space for an illustrator name, current use seems to be as an author, but that is really not correct. Also would be nice to have the cover artist name somewhere, maybe on the cover screen?
I’m not sure I understand, what is the “cover screen”?
The credits that you can enter for a book in Book Collector on Windows will appear more to the bottom of the details panel, under Credits:

Both Illustrator and Cover Artists can be entered for a book in the Edit Book screen, on the Credits tab.
Thanks, I did not understand what the Credits box was used for, along with some others apparently since they have been adding these as authors which is very confusing.
Oh… how do you know how other users are doing this?
9781880448267 Anne McCaffrey Rescue Run has Pat Morrissey listed as an author but the book lists him as the cover artist and illustrator. It is why I asked the original question.
Core does not provide illustrators and cover artist for books at all. Core only provides data for the author field (as far as people working on the book).
For the ISBN you mentioned we have Pat Morrissey and Anne McCaffrey listed as authors.
I can remove one from Core, but illustrators and cover artists are just people for books you can enter yourself, just like all the other jobs you can enter for a book!
Does that then answer your original question?
Yes Thank You
