Description
Parse real opening and closing dates with closing no earlier.
An artwork record can distinguish an edition, proof, accession, attribution, or display note. These labels preserve a stated catalog convention; they do not authenticate an object or establish ownership.
Parse real opening and closing dates with closing no earlier.
When to use this tool
Use Exhibition Open Close Inclusive Day Count when you need to format a supplied art-record detail consistently while retaining its source and qualifiers.
How to use the tool and how it works
- Enter openingDate, closingDate. Use the units and conventions below.
- Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
- Read inclusiveDays. Use the output convention below.
Parse real opening and closing dates with closing no earlier. Return their UTC-day difference plus one for inclusiveDays.1

{
"input": {
"openingDate": "2026-10-01",
"closingDate": "2026-10-10"
},
"output": {
"inclusiveDays": 10
}
}Limitations and assumptions
- Both dates count, including a same-day exhibition; closed days, opening hours, attendance, and actual event dates are not verified.
- Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.
Alternative or Complementary methods
Compare the resulting label with the collection catalog and the institution's documentation conventions.
