Dates in field 362 are chronological designations that identify individual issues of the serial.
Sequential designations are usually numeric, but can be alphabetic.
The information may be formatted or unformatted. Repeat field 362 only when one of the fields has a first indicator value of 0 and the other has a first indicator value of 1 . When both beginning and ending designations are formatted, or both are unformatted, record them in a single 362 field. Dates in field 362 should be the true beginning and ending dates, if any. Also, enter beginning and ending dates in the fixed-field element Dates .
