There is an example in DCM, Z1: DCM, Z1, 046: 372 ## $a Industrial relations $2 lcsh $v Lazzarini, Sergio G. CV-English, viewed Feb. 22, 2012 $u http://www.sergiolazzarini.insper.edu.br/indexelazza.html with a sequence of |a-|2-|v-|u. Then, our PCC Liaison recently double-checked with LC whether this example is prescriptive of the placement order of subfields under authority fields 372-374. A response from LC dated Nov. 13, 2012 was: Subfield $2, if coded, should precede subfield $v or a combination of subfield $v + $u. ... Aside from that, there is no guidance on placement. I always put the subfield $2 after the last element to which it applies, and before any subfield $s or $t: 372 $a Biotechnology $a Genetic engineering $2 lcsh $s 2008 not: 372 $a Biotechnology $a Genetic engineering $s 2008 $2 lcsh =================================================================== Hideyuki Morimoto Japanese Cataloger C.V.
