Indexing Services
Thoughtful indexes for complex subjects
A good index satisfies readers’ curiosity and helps make your ideas accessible. I read every word of your text to create insightful, accurate, and complete indexes that anticipate the needs of your various audiences.
I create high-quality, back-of-the-book and embedded indexes for academic texts and trade nonfiction. And I'll work with you to ensure the index reflects your ideas and meets any publisher requirements.
Subject areas
I index projects in the arts, humanities, and social sciences, with an added interest in business topics and the craft of writing. Subjects include:
- literature and literary criticism
- history and social history
- cultural studies
- social policy and programs
- urban studies and planning
- business management and leadership
- business planning and business analysis
- project management
- writing craft
Work with me
When you contact me, I will ask to see the manuscript (or sample chapters) and provide you with an estimate. Indexing fees take into account the complexity of the text, the expected depth of the index, and the timeline for completing the project.
Please get in touch if you would like to discuss a project.
