BIM – Building Information Modeling / Management : Methoden und Strategien für den Planungsprozess Beispiele aus der Praxis / herausgeber: Tim Westphal, Eva Maria Hermann. (OCLC #950982462)

I was confused by the title of this book, and not just because it’s half-English/half-German, but because that “I” between “Modeling” and “Management” didn’t make any sense, in English or German, as a regular word or a Roman numeral.

I googled around and all online shops I found this title in had it as a capital I. The version on the spine of the book (inset on the image) suggested that it was not a capital I, but more like a pipe or vertical bar (“|”) which made a lot more sense. That character is not in the ALA character set, so I could not actually use it in the OCLC record (now I know how to make that block ∎), so I went with a forward slash:

        Hermann.

As folks seem likely to think it’s a capital I and search that way, I included a title added entry:
