Why does the CiP entry begin each title word, except the first word, with a lower case letter?
Capitalisation in the CiP entry follows international cataloguing standards used by libraries. The initial letter of the title is capitalised with some exceptions to this practice. Publishers should print the CiP entry in the form in which it was returned to them using the capitalisation and punctuation set out in the entry.
