The American Society of Indexers (ASI) website offers a wealth of information
covering many aspects of indexing. While emphasizing indexing performed by
contract index professionals using stand-alone indexing tools, much can be learned
here by technical writers doing their own embedded indexing (the typical IXgen user).
In particular, the first five items in the ASI FAQ are brief but potent discussions about
key areas of indexing, including: what, who, how, what not to do, and skills needed.
