Melbourne Indexers: Indexing music biographies
2019-03-07 18:00 - 20:00 (Australia/Sydney) | ‘Peppercorn’ Meeting Room, Level 1 Hawthorn Library, 584 Glenferrie Road, Hawthorn, Victoria, Australia
Indexing biographies can be tricky – indexing biographies connected with Classical music can be trickier! If the readers are musicians, they will be looking for information on symphonies, piano trios, Middle Period style and so on. This doesn’t fit conveniently under a chronological arrangement nor a name/event one. Susan Pierotti will bring some Classical music books with a variety of indexing styles for us to discuss. Feel free to bring along any books on music and composers that you may have.

Parking is available down the side of the building. If you are travelling by public transport there is a tram stop nearby, and Glenferrie Station is just a couple of tram stops away.
After the meeting, we will go to a local restaurant for a meal (at own expense).

Melbourne Indexers: Typesetting
2019-05-02 18:00 - 20:00
Typesetters play in important role in book design and production. Sonya Murphy will talk about the history of the industry in Australia. How it transferred from a male-dominated hot-metal trade to today’s technology. Explaining how books are designed, she will discuss how the font use, size, number of pages, etc are all determined.
