German term

Verzeichnis

German to English Social Sciences Education / Pedagogy Author Guidelines for Manuscripts
I know Verzeichnis can mean inventory, list, etc. but I am not sure what the correct term here would be for what they mean with anthologies:

1. Allgemeine Hinweise
– Umfang: 1 Druckseite entspricht ca. 3000 Zeichen (inkl. Leerzeichen).
– Abstract: Dem Beitrag ist ein Abstract in englischer Sprache (1–2 Seiten) voranzustellen.
– Anschrift der Verfasserin/des Verfassers am Ende des Manuskripts (inkl. E-Mail- Adresse).
– Bei Sammelbänden gibt es ein Verzeichnis der Verfasser/innen.

Any help greatly appreciated! Thank you!

Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (2): writeaway, Michele Fauble

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

@Kaportnoy Isn't that what you need:

I don't think "works" works well (pardon the pun). At least to me, it sounds a bit vague or could be misunderstood ("works by more than one" could mean several documents by multiple authors, which isn't the point, IMO).

I was completely understanding this wrong - seems so simple now!

Oh that is good to know, thank you!

I wouldn't say "anthology", which I tend to associate with fiction. This is presumably academic publications, so I'd use something like "multi-author works" or "works by more than one writer". .

agree Björn Vrooman : Also agree that this isn't an anthology, although the term has little to do with "fiction": http://blog.apastyle.org/apastyle/2013/09/how-to-cite-an-ant... But there's no issue with "volume." See disc.

index

the term index corelates the item to the reference point (In this case maybe a page). From the context (Sammelbänden gibt es ein Verzeichnis der Verfasser/innen) index is closest to the meaning.
