- Abstract
The article informs about the upcoming events related to indexing. The Indexing and Abstracting Society of Canada (IASC) would organize a conference and annual general meeting at Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. Details for the IASC conference are under development. The program includes a panel on scholarly editing as well as presentations on evaluating indexes and on indexing in multicultural and multilingual environments. Indexers Available, the Society's directory of professional indexers, can already be consulted on the Society Website, where it is regularly updated. Now, however, Indexers Available is being issued in CD-ROM format, replacing the former printed version. An index is a vital tool to help readers locate information. A professional indexer will analyze a book or other document from the user's perspective and provide a carefully structured index to guide the reader into the text. The index will be prepared in the required style and format, to conform to the International and British Standards and to meet the publisher's schedule.
