    Does anyone know if Margrét Helgadóttir prefers to be referred to as "Margrét", "Helgadóttir", or "Margrét Helgadóttir" in references after the first?

    Her authority record in OCLC, and all the bibs I checked, use the last
    name first version. That said, the authority record does not have any
    comment field stating "email from author" or anything similar, so I
    would not call that an absolutely unimpeachable source.

    I assume that means the subsequent references should be "Helgadóttir"?

    I *think* so. I (and the authority file) could always be mistaken.
