Search Problems for Authors with Spaces in their Surname
Posted: Wed Jan 09, 2019 1:55 am
When I have an author like "de Vries, Saskia E J", or "von der Heydt, Rüdiger" — in macOS Bookends these names are handled well in search (i.e. "heydt" finds all papers from this author). But when doing an Author search in Bookends iOS no papers are returned. I can search for their co-authors who have single word surnames, but I can never find them.
I've tried the full surname (von der Heydt) or the main fragment (Heydt). I've tried using single and double or no quotation marks. I've also tried to use their first name (i.e. Rüdiger) which again works in macOS but fails on iOS. The only way for it to work is to use the first word of the surname (von) but it isn't specific enough and I get too many results. Can anyone reproduce this?
