                          While I can edit books' author metadata in the list view, I can’t seem to be finding a way to set multiple authors for a single title. Is there any way to do this, so that I can have, let's say, two separate author entities for a book?

    defaults read ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.BKAgentService/Data/Documents/iBooks/Books/Books.plist

    ...,
    {
          BKAllocatedSize = 131072;
          BKDisplayName = "An Introduction To Software Architecture";
          BKGeneratedItemId = 409BAEEB1FD9D2272D63E97BFB7CDEBD;
          BKGenerationCount = 3;
          BKInsertionDate = 558100869;
          BKIsLocked = 0;
          artistName = "David Garlan, Mary Shaw";
          explicit = 0;
          isPreview = 0;
          itemName = "An Introduction To Software Architecture";
          metadataMigrationVersion = 20140106;
          modificationDate = "2000-11-13 17:55:48 +0000";
          pageCount = 42;
          path = "/Users/Sepehr/Library/Mobile Documents/iCloud~com~apple~iBooks/Documents/An Introduction To Software Architecture.pdf";
          releaseDate = "2000-11-13 12:55:48 +0000";
          sourcePath = "/Users/Sepehr/Books/An Introduction To Software Architecture.pdf";
          updateDate = "2000-11-13 17:55:48 +0000";
          versionNumber = 0;
    },
    ...

How can I get more than one author added in the metadata for an iBooks document?
