- Abstract
- The chapter on indexes in The Chicago Manual of Style serves as a standard for index format and as a self teaching tool for authors and novice indexers. Reviews the 14th ed. for logical sequence, accordance of the guidelines and rules with those of other manuals and authorities, and the quality of its index. It is found wanting in all these areas, but contains much useful information on the indexing process and book index format

- Abstract
- Comments on Douglas Hofstadter's index to his book 'Le ton beau de Marot: in praise of the music of language'. Hofstadter took charge of the book design, typography, typesetting and copy-editing, and also compiled the index which covers 23 pages of 3 columnes and is set in a practically illegible 4-point. Although the index breaks all the rules of indexing, it is a masterly creation showing the author's industry, exhuberance and wit. Summarizes Hofstadter's own remarks on how creating the index gave hin new insights into what his book was essentially about

- Abstract
- This study examined the content of back of book indexes produced by 37 authors and 27 nonauthors. The purpose was to see if differences between the two groups of indexers could be discerned by counting the occurrence of characteristics in their indexes. The nonauthors, many or all of whom were probably professional indexers, provided significantly more index pages, modified headings, and modifiers than did the author indexers. The two groups were almost identical in their frequency of cross reference use. The simple counting technique is a feasible method. It should be applied to othe populations of back of book indexes to determine how generalizable are the author/nonauthor differences seen here

- Abstract
- PC-based software for document prosessing has become quite sophisticated, but the software tools available for embedding index entires in text files do not meet the needs of professional indexers. The author outlines basic index requirements of American publishers, and deficiencies in the current software and their user interfaces. The indexing capabilities of Microsoft WORD, WordPerfect, WordStar, XyWrite, and MACREX are reviewed. Suggestions are offerd for improvement in sorting algorithms, formatting capabilities, and user interface design

- Abstract
- The indexing of both books and periodicals must fulfill certain basic functions, prescribed by national and international standards. Regarding the requirements of their indexing, verbal texts in the form of books and periodicals form a continuum ranging from books written by a single author (or a small team), books written by multiple authors, encyclopedias, periodical volumes, and articles in periodicals. Problems of indexing policy, indexing language, depth of indexing, author's names, titles, the physical form of indexes, and indexes to single volumes of periodicals and cumulative indexes are discussed. Large bibliographic databases do not use fully automatic indexing systems, which are incapable of fulfilling all basic indexing functions. Rather, they employ teams of indexers supported by automated indexing aids for the execution of clerical tasks, vocabulary control, and other assistance for the intellectual tasks performed by indexers. Electronic journals are unlikely to be indexed because of the instability of their texts. The principal features of verbal texts and their indexes are displayed schematically

- Abstract
- Discusses the nature of standards as tools to promote compatibility and improve practice, the role of research versus expert opinion in the creation of standards, the changing scope of standards for indexes in the face of the changing indexing environment, with the increasing use of automatic indexing, electronic displays, and electronic searching of non-displayed indexes. Describes the current draft of the NISO American Standard Guidelines for indexes in information retrieval (Z39.4) in terms of 3 fundamental requirements: syntax, vocabulary management and comprehensive planning and design. Concludes with comments about the nebulous concept of good and accurate indexing and whether and how standards can be used advantageously

- 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
