Metadata is stored, wherein the metadata is associated with a pre-publication draft of the item of authored content, the metadata including a draft title and a pre-publication set of one or more authors. It is determined that no result in a first set of search results received from a repository of publication information in response to a first query based on the draft title satisfies one or more match criteria to be considered a match to the pre-publication draft of the item of authored content. In response to said determination, a second query based on the draft title and the pre-publication set of one or more authors is formulated and submitted to the repository. A second set of search results is received in response to the second query, each search result being associated with an associated published item of authored content, each published item of authored content having associated therewith a title as published and a list of authors as published. The one or more match criteria is applied to at least a subset of results included in the second set of search results to each of the title as published and the list of authors as published to determine a result considered to be a match to the pre-publication draft.
