Presentations

"Taking Charge of the Book: Using the WordCo Approach to Avoid Common Pitfalls in Indexing Projects", presented at 2006 ASI International Conference in Toronto, Canada

WordCo's methodical approach to indexing can help the indexer feel more confident throughout the course of the indexing project. By providing a simple routine together with a cyclical process of "zeroing-in" on the subject matter and the index, this approach reduces the need for guesswork and decision making on the part of the indexer. The end result is to make the indexing process less formidable and more logical. The presentation is in workshop format with hands-on exercises.
