  Index (publishing) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
An index is a detailed list, usually arranged alphabetically, of the specific information in a publication, whether a book, periodical, database or multimedia collection.
Ideally, an index is not simply a list of the major terms in a publication (which is more properly called a concordance), but an organized map of its contents, including cross-references, grouping of like concepts, and other useful intellectual analysis.
There are a number of sub-specialties in indexing, such as web indexing (the application of a back-of-book-style index to a website or intranet), database indexing (the application of a pre-defined controlled vocabulary such as MeSH to articles for inclusion in a database), periodical indexing (indexing of newspapers, journals, magazines).

 index, in publishing. The Columbia Encyclopedia, Sixth Edition. 2001-05
In an index to a periodical the entries are less specific, referring usually to an article as a whole rather than to every subject touched upon in each article.
Indexing requires experience and skill, since it is necessary not only to grasp the meaning of the author but to phrase that meaning clearly and in such a way as to place it alphabetically where the reader is likely to look first.
Indexes to illustrations, to artifacts, to formulas, and to various collections of materials are common.
