\subsection{Multi-Volume Works}
This template has space for a volume number tag for multi-volume thesis. This can be used with the \verb|\volume| tag.
If volumes are used it is common practice to continue page numbering from one volume to the next.
To force the next volume to start at a specific number use the \verb|\setcounter{page}{n}| where $n$ is the first page of this volume.
Also you will need to continue the chapter number with \verb|\setcounter{chapter}{m}| where $m$ is the chapter number to start with.
There are more complex automatic follow on number methods, however for the sake of a small number of volumes entering the numbers manually is a small overhead.
If you wish to include full contents this is more complicated and will require manual editing of the \verb|.toc| file for each volume.
You will not be the first to want to do this and the \LaTeX{} community should be able to help with this.
