Are you using the command line or the GUI?

If you are using the GUI then every time you update the author in the library view the corresponding file and directory gets cleaned up automatically. You shouldn't have non-authors continue to exist once you have corrected the GUI the non-authors go away.

You can verify everything by running the Check Library under Library maintenance via the dropdown menu next to the library icon.
