Re: Should a glossary be indexed?
It seems to me that the answer would be no, but I came across one today so thought I might pose the question to the community at large.
Yes, every glossary term should be in the index, for a simple reason: If you do not index the glossary, you force the reader to look in two places. If you index it, the reader need only look in the index.
