NZ Mentoring Scheme
The New Zealand Branch has revived its own mentoring scheme, while the ANZSI scheme is being redeveloped. As before, the scheme aims to provide new or inexperienced members with the advice of an experienced, registered indexer.
Our first mentor is award-winning indexer Tordis Flath and the scheme’s coordinator is Susan Brookes. Are you interested? Please email Susan Brookes,
Index Club NZ
Index Club is up and running for New Zealand Branch members to participate in. The idea is based on the book club concept. Members of the club can choose an online text with an index for the group to study over a few weeks, read and analyse the index to whatever level they choose, and then have the opportunity to post any comments or observations about the index to an online forum. This should be a fun way to think about best practice in back-of-book indexing.
New Zealand branch members please email Jill Gallop, if you would like to join the club.
Library
We have a small number of resources available for New Zealand branch members to borrow, including:
