    Abstract
    Briefly describes and reviews ISO 999:1996 'Information and documentation - Guidelines for the content, organization and presentation of indexes'. This is the 2nd edition of the 1975 international indexing standard 'Index of a publication', and in the UK it replaces British Standard 3700:1988 'Recommendations for preparing indexes to books, periodicals and other documents'. ISO 999 contains guidelines for the compilation and presentation of indexes and the examples are given as illustrations, not as prescriptions. Outlines the content of the standard and lists some of its recommendations on a few of the most debated technical points in index-making

    Abstract
    The active working life of a freelance indexer can be very long and there is a danger of becoming out of date, particularly if work is always done alone and never in collaboration with others. Emphasizes the importance of continuing professional development (CPD) for freelance indexers and discusses how this can be achieved. Discusses four elements requiring attention: indexing practice, general knowledge, subject knowledge, and equipment. Focuses on new developments in indexing practice concerning the formation of headings and the presentation of entries and describes changes in practice which have taken place during the last 20 years, including: initial capitals for headings; cross-references; filing order; abbreviated forms; Latin abbreviations attached to locators; pages ranges; subheadings; and the terminology of indexing. Suggests ways in which the freelance indexer can avail themselves of opportunities for professional development
