2C1. Transcribe a statement of responsibility relating to one or more editions, but not to all editions, of a given work following the edition statement if there is one. Such statements may include names of either persons or corporate bodies, and may relate to any contributor to the intellectual or artistic contents of the edition (e.g., the reviser of a new edition). Follow the instructions in 1F for the transcription and punctuation of such statements of responsibility.

2C2. In case of doubt about whether a statement of responsibility applies to all editions or only to some, or if there is no edition statement, give such a statement in the title and statement of responsibility area.

2C3. If a publication has parallel edition statements that have been recorded and a statement of responsibility relating to the edition in only one language or script, give the statement of responsibility after all the parallel edition statements.

2C4. Optional addition. If a publication has both an edition statement and a statement of responsibility relating to the edition in more than one language or script, give each statement of responsibility after the edition statement to which it relates. (LC does not apply the optional addition.)

2C5. If a publication has an edition statement in only one language or script and a statement of responsibility relating to the edition in more than one language or script, give the statement of responsibility in the language or script of the title proper. If this criterion does not apply, give the statement that appears first.

Optionally, transcribe the parallel statements of responsibility after the edition statement, each preceded by an equals sign. (LC does not apply the option.)
