I checked the search on Thorndike's OPAC -- which retrieves the same record regardless of case. I did look at the MARC record associated with the record, even though I didn't expect there to be anything that would affect a case search since we don't code for that. There was nothing unexpected in the record as viewed through the OPAC.
