Today we are witnessing several battles in the digital publishing sphere: between proponents and opponents of indexes\, between freelance indexers and their customers who want more for less\, and even between individual indexers about the best way to approach indexing for digital books. The good news is that we are starting to see some emerging solutions to these conflicts. This presentation will offer suggestions on how publishers can maximize customer value by utilizing the potential of digital indexes in the most cost-effective way. \nStephen Ingle is the president and CEO of WordCo Indexing Services\, Inc. (www.wordco.com)\, founded in 1988 and located in Norwich\, Connecticut. He has served on the national board of the American Society for Indexing (ASI). His interests include publishing workflows\, especially as they pertain to digital publishing. He is presenting at the Textbook & Academic Authors Association annual conference in Santa Fe in June. \n
