Mertes:
As president of ASI I am pleased to announce the publication of Index It Right! Advice from the Experts, Volume 2, Edited by Janet Perlman & Enid L. Zafran, 2010. We all owe a vote of thanks to Janet, Enid, and all the contributors who worked so hard to produce this splendid volume and made it a book that should be in every indexer’s library.
The second volume in this series provides a range of topics. Dealing with the technique of indexing, it covers how to write subheadings (Towery & Agee) and how to handle locators and page numbers (Russell). For specialty areas, articles deal with public policy (Zafran), textbooks (McVey), technical writing (Wright), and naval and military (Patton). In format types, it offers guidance on database indexing (Mamassian), taxonomies and thesauri (Heddon), and embedded techniques (Haskins). The book is available for sale NOW via the ASI Publications homepage, or directly through ITI (http://books.infotoday.com/books/index.shtml#index). It is priced at $32 for ASI members, $40 for nonmembers – a tangible member benefit!
