Dates of individual items never form a continuum, so take the dates of the first and the last event, i.e. normal="1963/1968". Regards, Alex Plantema.

How do I properly encode for dates that are not a span? Example: <unittitle>Condolences, <unitdate normal="??????"></unitdate>1963, 1968</unittitle> Thank you!! Thanks for the help, Ashley
