Sažetak
The article explores dependence of authority records production on
number and origin of the authors in journal articles from different areas of science. For this purpose, a preliminary statistical survey concerning with number and origin of authors in journal articles from four areas of science (humanities, social sciences, biomedical sciences and natural sciences) was carried out. From each of these areas five journals – a total of twenty – were analyzed. The research results that are presented in tables and graphs indicate asymmetry of complexity and time required to create authority records for authors in favor of social and humanistic fields, where dominate native authors and one-author articles, so creating authority records for authors in the journals from these areas is significantly simpler and several times faster in comparison with journals from biomedical and natural sciences
areas. It is concluded that this fact should certainly be taken into account when evaluating the work of catalogers who create authority records.
