    Abstract
    In recent years, the amount of research in indexing appears to have decreased, despite the continued need for improvement in both quality and cost-effectiveness of indexing. The primary purpose of any index is to permit users to locate information; this implies both a need for research into user needs per se, and a requirement that any research be oriented toward the goal of meeting those needs. Cognitive processes of both indexers and index users need study; the former appear not to have been explicitely addressed in the literature. Issues of vocabulary control - the extent of control, or even whether it should be used at all - continue to present problems, despite the continued development of tools intended to aid in such control. Increased computer power has made it possible to relegate to the computer more of the tasks formerly carried out by humans. The need to determine how best to supplement human intellectual effort with computer capabilities has become urgent. Structure and layout of indexes, both on the printed page and on computer screens, remain primarily a matter of folklore and intuition, despite the existence of some research on the topic. Finally, more research on evaluation of indexes is required, to assure that all other efforts contribute to actual usability of the final product

    Abstract
    Relationships between the terms in thesauri and Indexes are the subject of national and international standards. The standards for thesauri enumerate and provide criteria for three basic types of relationship: equivalence, hierarchical, and associative. Standards and guidelines for indexes draw an the thesaurus standards to provide less detailed guidance for showing relationships between the terms used in an Index. The international standard for multilingual thesauri adds recommendations for assuring equal treatment of the languages of a thesaurus. The present standards were developed when lookup and search were essentially manual, and the value of the kinds of relationships has never been determined. It is not clear whether users understand or can use the distinctions between kinds of relationships. On the other hand, sophisticated text analysis systems may be able both to assist with development of more powerful term relationship schemes and to use the relationships to improve retrieval.
