Credits: 1.5 CEUs or 15 PDHs
This four-week, asynchronous online course provides an introduction to, and hands-on practice in, the indexing process for books. The main objective is to provide the student with a beginning skill set in producing a traditional back-of-the-book index. The intellectual and technical skills used will also be applicable to the indexing of other materials of various sorts. Topics will include: plumbing the indexer mindset; how users approach and use indexes; types of indexes; index term selection and entry formation; publisher requirements and considerations; characteristics of a high- quality index; the technological toolbox of the 21st century indexer (i.e.: macros and indexing software and embedded indexing).
