"Other Authors" includes Publisher

I'm wondering why the "Other Authors" feature for audiobooks always includes the publisher? That info is available in other places on the book record and doesn't seem like what people would go looking for in other authors, like secondary authors or, in the case of audiobooks, narrators. Is this auto included there based on where it's being added from (such as Amazon) or is this coming from somewhere else? I'd like to not include it but removing it individually from each of my books is tedious.

If it is in your catalogue, it comes from your source.

>2 MarthaJeanne: Thanks, I played around with searching other sources to see what effect that had and realized that was the case. Unfortunately, sources for digital audiobooks seem to be limited and Amazon is the culprit for jamming in publishers.

You can always remove it.

>5 lilithcat: Yeah, it's easy enough now when adding new books. Editing the 294 already in my catalog will be a pain since that column is not editable in Your Books view.
