Tanya,
A better source for information would be Index-L:
"Index-L
Index-L is a mailing list intended to promote good indexing practice.
The group provides a forum for aspiring and professional indexers to
share information and ideas relating to the
intellectual, philosophical, and technical aspects of index
preparation. Topics for discussion can include various types of index
structures such as indexes for books, periodicals, online text,
databases, or hypermedia. Participants include but are not limited to
the following groups: members of the American Society of Indexers
(ASI); librarians and library school faculty and students; information
access professionals; hypertext and database developers; and authors
indexing their own works.
For the most part, Index-L is not moderated. Occasionally the list
owner will stop banter that is totally inappropriate.
To join, send the following message to lyris -at- listserv -dot- unc -dot- edu
INDEX-L is owned by Ilana Kingsley. The list is stored on the servers
at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill."
