Applies to [[Release|release]]s that are part of a [[Series|series]].

'''When a release is one of a [[Series|series]] and are labeled as volumes, separate the [[Volume Number|volume number]] from the [[Main Title|main title]] by a comma like so:'''

:'''“''Release title'', Volume 2”'''

==Example==

* “''UK Space Techno, Volume 5''”
* “''Café del Mar, volumen cinco''”

==Details==

This guideline is a specification of the more general [[Style/Recording and release group titles/Series numbers|Series numbers]] guideline. See that page for principles and details.

Alternative names for volumes may be used, such as “Tome”, “Book”, “Part”, or their non‐English equivalents.
* Note that if the [[Main Title|main title]] of a Release is just “''Volume 1''” or similar then this guideline should not apply!
* Also note that the guidelines for [[Style/Recording and release group titles/Abbreviations|abbreviations]] say that you should not use abbreviations in titles. So “Vol.” should always be expanded to “Volume” (assuming the [[Release Language|release language]] is English).
* Also note that the [[Subtitle|subtitle]] of a release of a series must be formatted according to the guidelines for [[Style/Recording and release group titles/Subtitles|subtitles]].
