If there are 19.371 books "OUR Brockhaus selection" and my assumption (dupes + little information) is right, why not deleting them, instead of waiting/hoping that they will be merged one time? With the help of ISBN it's easy to make a test:
http://openlibrary.org/search?q=%093518182161 http://openlibrary.org/search?q=2830910419 http://openlibrary.org/search?q=3205770064 http://openlibrary.org/search?q=3518182110 http://openlibrary.org/search?q=3525551975 http://openlibrary.org/search?q=3791327887 etc. The deletion would improve the quality of the German entries significantly.
