+Editing authority records
++++++++++++++++++++++++++
+
+Editing an authority record (or merging two authority records) can cause its linked bibliographic records to also update.  For example,
+if you correct a spelling error in the 150 field of a subject authority record, the relevant 650 field in linked bibliographic records 
+will also be updated to reflect the correct spelling.
+
+[TIP]
+=================
+When a bib record is automatically updated as a result of the modification of a linked authority record, the bib record's "Last Edit Date/
+Time" and "Last Editing User" fields will be updated to match the time of the update and the editory of the authority record.  If you'd
+prefer that these fields not be automatically updated, you can set the _ingest.disable_authority_auto_update_bib_meta_ setting to true in the
+Library Settings Editor.
