Spreadsheet structure

If a column heading has one word, it should be capitalized.

If a column heading has more than one word, each should be capitalized and separated by an underscore.

Here are the column headings currently used:
ID   
Name   
Address
Town   
State   
Lat   
Long   
Address_Type   
Address_Notes   
Phys_Status   
GB_Issues
Description   
Detailed_History   
Housing   
Food   
Automotive   
Personal_Care   
Entertainment   
Other_Attributes   
Proc_Status
 

Constraints on values in cells

Values of cells under Housing, Food, Personal Care, etc.
Also, note that the types of Housing, Food, Personal Care, etc should have individual words capitalized, but should not contain an underscore.  Some examples of these are "Tourist Home", "Taxi Service", "Night Club" and "Barber Shop".  One exception to this format is "Room and Board".


If an establishment is to be identified as multiple types of Housing, Food, etc, you may put multiple values in one spreadsheet cell for each category separated by a comma.  If an establishment is both an Inn and a Motel, you may put both values in the cell under Housing as "Inn, Motel".  Another example of multiple housing types is "Hotel,Tourist Home"  One of the establishments has "Service Station,Garage" in the Automotive cell. 

 

Year and Year Ranges under GB_Issues

The GB_Issues column may contain multiple dates and date ranges like

1939
or
1939-1941
or
1939, 1941-1943, 1945, 1951-1952 

 

Uniqueness of the ID value for each Establishment

The ID column should contain a unique id for each unique establishment.

If there are two listings in the same GB Issue (year) with the same Name but different Addresses, then each listing should get a different Establishment ID value. If an establishment has multiple addresses in different GB Issues (years), then the same Establishment ID should be used for each address line in the spreadsheet.

 

Notes on conventions for entering values in spreadsheets

1. If the Establishment appears in an advertisement and there is information about the Establishment not covered by the current column headings, then add that information in the Notes field.
