Services
I provide back-of-book indexing, specializing in the areas of psychology, fine art, arts and crafts, folklore, regional history and guide books. I have a varied professional and educational background and a range of subject knowledge. I am always open to indexing other subject areas, so please reach out and tell me about your book.
Rates
Canadian industry standards recommend a rate of $3.50 to $7 per indexable page. Rates are generally dependent upon the number of indexable pages, complexity of subject matter and the number of entries per page.
Process
Send me an email and tell me a bit about your project so that we can determine if I'm the best fit for your book. Please include:
We can then discuss details such as publisher style guidelines, the amount of space allotted for the index, and any other concerns you may have. My goal is always a happy customer. Should you have any questions during the indexing process I encourage you to contact me at any time, and I will do the same.
Once I send you the completed index, please let me know if any changes need to be made. When you are happy with your index I will send you an invoice and look forward to receiving your payment within 30 days.
