This heading may be locally subdivided by names of places where immigrants settle.
For works discussing emigrants from a particular place, an additional heading is assigned to designate the nationality of origin of the emigrant group and the place to which they have immigrated, e.g. Chinese--United States; Americans--Foreign countries.
