To be held at the Hilton Garden Inn, 1620 Prince Street, Old Town, Alexandria Virginia on January 19, 2019

 Enid L. Zafran, one of our long-time members and a well-known indexer, will give a full-day workshop on the topic of Indexing Names.  No matter what field of indexing you specialize in, no matter how long you have been an indexer, names always present a challenge.

Enid will consider names indexing from three aspects:

• the strategies to make them into index entries,
• determining when a name is “indexable,”
• the correct formatting and sorting of names of various types.

There will be hands-on exercises during the day (no laptop or software required).

This workshop was given for the first time in Chicago in October 2018, and participants commented:  “Enid covered so many different naming principles that challenged us and illuminated our knowledge. Everyone who attended was enthralled with the presentation from this veteran indexer.”

Registration is open until 1/11/19. Please visit our chapter meetings page for registration form and mailing details.
