Tip for hiring #editor or #indexer: If you're quoted a rate you don't like, tell us. If you say you'll get back to us, we don't get to negotiate a better rate, plus we often hold space for your project or make a note to check in with you.
Just tell us. It's fine to say that's not in your budget.

Both days of the American Society for Indexing 2025 Conference were excellent! I’d looking forward to putting to use all that I learned. #asi2025 #indexing #indexer
I have never seen my own index mentioned on social media.
I may be having some feels right now. #Indexer

#IndexingDay
#NationalIndexingDay (Nov. 18) celebrates "the craft that keeps knowledge organized and accessible." If you have ever used an #index to locate information within a book or other publication, thank an #indexer!
Think you have what it takes to be an #indexer? #NationalIndexingDay
Ever wonder what an #indexer does? Now you know! #NationalIndexingDay
This is advice for anyone looking for a UK based book #indexer. The Society of Indexers has a directory, but not all #indexers have live entries. If you struggle to find someone, just ask and we can post on the professionals forum to help find someone with subject experience. Also, book early!
#Publishers, #authors, and #businesses: I know where you can find a professional #indexer to create an #index for your publications. Go to http://www.findanindexer.com to search for an indexer or post about your need for indexers.
It's always a happy day when @IvaCheung—#editor, #indexer, trainer, #publishing consultant, & #researcher—posts her newest #cartoon. She *gets* editors! https://ivacheung.com/2022/12/break/ [Alt text: Black-&-white cartoon created by Iva Cheung about maintaining schedules in...
I hope all my #indexer colleagues enjoy this cartoon from @IvaCheung. https://ivacheung.com/2021/08/queue/

So you want to contract with an #editor, #proofreader, #indexer, #layout design professional, #permissions editor, or other editorial #professional. Can they get your project done good, fast, *and* cheap? No. @ebrenner explains why: http://bit.ly/2RVDNEF .
This is a fascinating diary of how a #book #indexer works: http://blog.ciep.uk/book-indexer/ .
Highly experienced #indexer Peter Rooney has created a thorough & very useful index to the #MuellerReport. Help out democracy by telling the #newsmedia that the index is here: https://www.muellerreportindex.net/ . Contact Rooney here: https://www.muellerreportindex.net/contact .
Updated "Editing Tools" pg ( http://bit.ly/1gy2pva ) of Copyeditors' Knowledge Base (CKB) to add link to updated Australian Government Style Manual. #Editor & #indexer Margaret McDonell says you can comment on the manual at http://bit.ly/3k62v1W .
I am annoyed with emails that say "What are your rates and availability" without offering information.
If you want to hire an #indexer, give some info up front and be polite (include a salutation, etc.). Is this a trade or scholarly book? What's the topic?
I read that if you can easily explain your job, it's likely that robots could do it.
I think I'm safe.

Welp, it's happened: I just indexed "selfies."

Spending the day #indexing a book about Native American diplomats during the removal era who tried to protect their nations' land and sovereignty the best they knew how. Against the full might of American empire.

I love working with authors, especially being a human presence in the publishing process. It's my pastoral side coming out. 😄
#indexer
I've been an #indexer for 7 years, and still sometimes I'll be working on a book and think, "hmm, I wonder how many pages the author discusses this topic on? I should flip to the index and check."
But I can't. Because I'm still #indexing the book.

I love indexers. Whenever I've had any say, I have requested a credit line for the #indexer in books that I have edited.
