This is one of a series of issues I'll be posting about concerning things I notice as I put together my data entry system.

There seems to be some variation in the way that publisher names are indicated in the records. Most of these are nit-picky and have to do with "Bodleian Library" vs. "Bodleian Libraries", but for some others I'm unsure that the correct publisher has been provided:

collection publisher(s) issue(s)
arabic commentaries on the hippocratic aphorisms project The University of Melbourne Library
The University of Manchester School of Arts, Languages and Cultures
british library British Library
cambridge university Cambridge University Library
Bodleian Library is this correct for this collection? if so, change to "Bodleian Libraries"
Cambridge University Lib-ary typing error; merge with "Cambridge University Library"
eton college windsor Eton College
hertford college (university of oxford) Bodleian Library change to "Bodleian Libraries"
jesus college (cambridge) Bodleian Libraries is this correct for this collection?
keble college (university of oxford) Bodleian Library change to "Bodleian Libraries"
King's College Cambridge King's College Cambridge
new college (university of oxford) New College (University of Oxford)
oxford university Bodleian Library change to "Bodleian Libraries"
The University of Manchester School of Arts, Languages and Cultures is this correct for this collection?
queen's college cambridge Queens College Cambridge
royal asiatic society of great britain and ireland Royal Asiatic Society of Great Britain and Ireland
school of oriental and african studies SOAS Library
st antony's college (oxford) Bodleian Libraries
the university of manchester The University of Manchester Library
trinity college cambridge Trinity College Cambridge
trinity college dublin, the university of dublin TCD Library
trinity hall (cambridge) Bodleian Libraries is this correct for this collection?
university of birmingham University of Birmingham
university of st andrews University of St Andrews Library
wadham college (university of oxford) Wadham College (University of Oxford)
wellcome trust Wellcome Library; Bibliotheca Alexandrina; King's College London

I can change "Bodleian Library" to "Bodleian Libraries" if @awatson67 gives me the OK; ditto with the typo in "Cambridge University Lib-ary" if @yf227 is okay with that. For the rest, could people in the know check and see if the right publishers have indeed been used for the relevant institutions? Thanks in advance!
