Particularly where cataloguing is likely to be based on the content of the header,
it is advisable to use a generally recognized name authority file to supply the content
for this element. The attributes key or ref may also be used to reference canonical information about the author(s) intended
from any appropriate authority, such as a library catalogue or online resource.
In the case of a broadcast, use this element for the name of the company or network
responsible for making the broadcast.
Where an author is unknown or unspecified, this element may contain text such as Unknown or Anonymous. When the appropriate TEI modules are in use, it may also contain detailed tagging
of the names used for people, organizations or places, in particular where multiple
names are given.
