Difference in processing of Author field delimiter for OpenAlex and Scopus #596

Description

@optykali

When using convert2df() the author field delimiter is different for OpenAlex and Scopus

OpenAlex delimiter includes a whitespace, i.e. "; "
Scopus delimiter does NOT include a whitespace, i.e. ";"

Currently I am reverting to a hotfix (having a variable dbsource in my script given a tibble holding data called bibx_df)

if(dbsource=="scp") {bibx_df$AU <- str_replace_all(string = bibx_df$AU, pattern = ";", replacement = "; ")}
