According to the examples in the Librarian Manual, mostly with a comma: https://help.goodreads.com/s/article/...Definitely not in parentheses, as that is reserved for series info. (And also has issues with autocombine.)
If the subtitle is different on each volume, I usually use a colon for the subtitle and a semicolon for the volume particularly when it is "Volume 2 of 6" or whatnot.

Thank you, that is very helpful. I came across some this morning that had been imported with parentheses. They didn't look right, but I left them rather than compounding any wrongness.
In parentheses? Following a colon, the same as a subtitle? Something else?
