[LM_NET] Gen: Spine label designation for author's names containing an apostrophe

[Brenda Hahn <Brenda.Hahn@K12.SD.US>]

Greetings to all,

It's been several decades since my cataloging classes, and I am asking your help 
with a question.  On our spine labels, we use the Dewey number or "Fic" on the 
first line, with the first three letters of the author's last name on the second 
line.  What would be the correct three-letter designation for an author whose name 
contains an apostrophe...as in L'Engle?  Should it be "L'E", "LEn", or something 
else?

I've tried some Google searches, but must not be choosing the correct terms.  
Thanks so much for any help you can give!

Brenda
