"Helpful sections on ethics in indexing and abstracting, as well as various career and job opportunities, should prove useful for students interested in the profession. Authoritative and academic, Introduction to Indexing and Abstracting is a valuable reference tool." - VOYA
"The book, as stated by its authors, no doubt can serve as a guide for the neophyte indexer and practitioner to the fundamentals of indexing and abstracting. It would also be an excellent textbook for the subject. As the field of publishing has changed greatly with the explosion of new technologies available since the 3d edition was published in 2000, this updated edition will be a welcome addition to practicing librarians, students of library and information science, and educators in the area of information organization." - ARBA
