For this project, I worked with a few other interns to edit and enhance the biographies sent to us by the authors in their confirmation forms. The biographies would be put into the master spreadsheet of all the author information and then we would take the bios and paste them into a Google Doc. From there, we edited them to fit within the style guide the Library of Congress provided us. If a bio was too short or did not contain enough detail about the author, we were tasked to do some research about the author and their featured work to flesh it out. Often this meant adding details about their careers that were missing or adding a summary of their featured book. Once we finished editing them, the bios were proofread and added to the website along with the photos of the author via WordPress.
