Indexing News

• Did you miss my live ASI webinar on embedded indexing with Index-Manager? Download the replay here. This webinar software demonstration “Indexing with Index Manager: Indexing and Embedding the Forest and the Trees” aired Tuesday, October 30, 2018. Writing, editing, embedding index entries—this can be done with professional indexing software! I demonstrated how I use Index-Manager for writing quality indexes, including for providing analysis and headings, subheadings, cross-references, and page ranges. I also showed how I edit my work, and how I export this work for final embedded publication. Viewers see how to craft and edit both simple and complex index entries, with page ranges and with cross-references. Viewers also see how to export and review embedded indexes.
• Wahoo! There’s an English-language manual for Index-Manager now! Download your copy here. This manual even has a linked and embedded index, of course.
• The AMA Manual of Style, a superb guide for authors and editors is available online. I highly recommend this editorial manual, especially for Chapter 13, Medical Indexes.
