[DCRM-L] Alfred Hölder, publisher

[Ted P Gemberling]

Please excuse posting in more than one place.

This is for people who use publishers as added entries. I was able to get information to distinguish two people who had been confused in the past. Alfred Hölder, a publisher in Vienna in the 19th and early 20th centuries, is not the same as Alfred Holder, a librarian and classicist. They now have separate authorities:
no2015072781 for Hölder, A. ǂq (Alfred), ǂc 1835-1915 (the publisher)
nr 97044915 for Holder, Alfred, ǂd 1840-1916 (the librarian and classicist)

It was hard to distinguish them because they were both in Vienna at certain points, and their dates are fairly close together.  But it was just hard to believe that one Holder would have time both to publish thousands of books in Vienna and do his classical studies in Karlsruhe, Germany!
