What does it take to be an #indexer?
#IndexingDay
Logo for National Indexing Day from ASI. Logo is an owl made ip of a book is body and eyes as glasses.
Anatomy of an indexer: detail oriented vision, analytical mind, hunger for knowledge, love of books, inquisitive spirit, enduring drive.
How I’ve celebrated National Indexing Day:
Indexed a book about books (how cool is that?)
Worked on a presentation about indexes, one full of recommendations for building better ebook indexes.
Graded student indexers’ final index assignments.
Looked up information in an index.

Indexes are an important way to help your readers to find the information they need in your book, and display what you wrote at its best. Does your book have an index? Happy National Indexing Day! www.asindexing.org/indexingday/

As an indexer, of course I agree. And as a reader and occasional researcher, I deeply appreciate the added value a good index adds to the book. #IndexingDay #indexes
Happy National Indexing Day (November 18)!
As a book indexer, I create an alphabetical listing at the end of a book of the key concepts and on what pages you can find that information.

Re: #IndexingDay: I make the same specific, small sound of disappointment whenever I buy or borrow a fascinating book with no index. Indexers are a vital part of producing, preserving, and enriching research and learning, and all publishers should hire one of these pros to add their excellent coda.
Happy #IndexingDay to all our American colleagues at the American Society for Indexing!
Happy #IndexingDay to my American colleagues! And thank you, American Society for Indexing, for creating helpful (and fun!) images to post on social media to celebrate this day.

Wishing the American Society for Indexing well with their first National Indexing Day #IndexingDay today, celebrating book indexes and their creators. (The UK Society of Indexers #IndexDay is in late March as usual.) I love the global indexing community. Indexers rock, internationally. 🕵🏻📖

Tomorrow (Nov. 18) is National Indexing Day! I get a lot of confused looks when I say I'm an indexer. Ever used an index at the back of a book? That's what I do: I create indexes. It requires analytical skills and attention to detail while still seeing the big picture. And I love it. #IndexingDay
