We will have a variety of indexing course materials for you to examine. Come have lunch, discuss approaches, and look at materials. Beginners will find it valuable to see the different approaches. Established indexers will be intrigued with the approaches and concept outlines. 11:30 - 1:00 Lunch, Networking, "Ask an Indexer". As usual, we will make sure that working indexers are sitting at each table, so that new and potential indexers have a chance to ask questions. 1:00 - 1:30 Business Meeting. Hear what we have accomplished since our last meeting and what we are planning for the rest of the year. 1:30 - 2:30 Learning Indexing--Part One. A group session - we will work through a portion of one set of course material together, and discuss its approach, value, and usefulness. 2:30 - 3:30 Learning Indexing--Part Two.
