How to find easily books with multiple authors?
Hi,
I need to find in the main interface all books with multiple authors After reading this article I assumed that I needed to use a regular expression to find all books with "&" in the author field. Unfortunately, the following search return nothing: author:~\& I'd very much appreciate if someone could explain what I am doing wrong and point me in the right direction. On the same topic, I would appreciate advice to find all books with one single author or no author at all. Thanks in advance. W. |

You can search for ampersand in author_sort, there it works as intended. But authors:#>1 is better.
