Nachalo ochenʹ khoroshego letnego dni︠a︡ : (simfonii︠a︡) ; Otet︠s︡ i dochʹ ; Svi︠a︡zʹ ; U Kolkova zabolela ruka / Daniil Kharms ; risoval Stansilav Zhit︠s︡kiĭ. (OCLC #38698598)

This set of books is published in a case together; though it has no collective title for the set, we can still catalog the books together on one record. All titles are included in the title field, separated by semicolons (ISBD 1.1.5.2):

    245 10 ǂa Nachalo ochenʹ khoroshego letnego dni︠a︡:
        ǂb (simfonii︠a︡) ; Otet︠s︡ i dochʹ ; Svi︠a︡zʹ ; U Kolkova
        zabolela ruka / ǂc Daniil Kharms ; risoval Stansilav 
        Zhit︠s︡kiĭ.

which may only provide title access to the first title in the list. OCLC’s Bib Formats documentation for 246 clarifies that “for items including several works but lacking a collective title, field 246 is used only for titles related to the title selected as the title proper, usually the first work named in the chief source of information. Titles related to other works are recorded in field 740”:

    740 02 ǂa Otet︠s︡ i dochʹ.
    740 02 ǂa U Kolkova zabolela ruka.
    740 02 ǂa Svi︠a︡zʹ.

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:

    245 00 ǂa BIM - Building Information Modeling / Management : 
        ǂb Methoden und Strategien für den Planungsprozess Beispiele
        aus der Praxis / ǂc herausgeber: Tim Westphal, Eva Maria 
        Hermann.

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

    246 3_ ǂa BIM - Building Information Modeling I Management

Waro Kishi + K Associates / Waro Kishi. (OCLC #922302784)

This stack of ten volumes are not numbered, but they share an ISBN:

    978-89-97603-28-2 (set)

I didn’t see a set title indicated on the volumes, so used the title from the architect’s web site and indicated that in a note.

The individual volumes don’t have numbering, so I used the order/numbering from another catalog record:

505 0_ ǂa [v. 1]. Kim House 1987 2011 -- [v. 2]. House in Nipponbashi
    -- [v. 3]. House in Higashi-Osaka, House in Shimogamo -- 
    [v. 4]. House in Fukaya -- [v. 5]. House in Kurakuen I, II -- 
    [v. 6]. House in Wakayama -- [v. 7]. Hu-Tong House -- 
    [v. 8]. House on Musashino-Hills -- [v. 9]. Glashaus -- 
    [v. 10]. House in Yamanoi.

I also included title added entries for each title:

700 12 ǂa Kishi, Warō, ǂd 1950- ǂt Kim House 1987 2011. 
710 12 ǂa Kishi, Warō, ǂd 1950- ǂt House in Nipponbashi.
...

in part to provide a good description, but also because they seem like likely searches for other catalogers with the volumes in hand.
