<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Garamond",serif">Sorry everyone, I wasn’t clear. The weird ? appears in the resource, not the OCLC record—I’m doing an original for this as no one else has quite the same edition. It’s interesting
to think that they may be emulating manuscript practice, although I’ve never seen a ? in the mss I’ve cataloged, they are usually specific abbreviations for specific combinations of letters. I was just wondering if anyone ran into the use of the ? in a resource
to indicate, well, wildcards we’d call them now. I’m wondering if this is widespread, particularly French, or particularly this publisher.
