  Note that individual biography numbers occur in the P-PZ schedules for persons not covered by provisions for literary authors (critics, historians, actors, journalists, etc.). Works in these numbers are subarranged according to the Biography Table in G320.

A biography table accompanying a schedule takes precedence over the table in G320.

If works by and about an individual happen to be classified at the same number (including biographical works that are not in an individual biography class), they are arranged in the Preferred Shelflist Order--Individual Authors (SCM: Shelflisting, G60.2) by means of a series of successive Cutter numbers for works by the individual, with the last Cutter in the series used for biographical and critical works about the individual, subdivided by means of a second Cutter for the main entry of the work.
