Abstract
Indexing is an activity in the performance of which a sense of aims and objectives may easily be blurred by one's over-immersion in technicalities. This is a great pity because preoccupation with the technicalities is right and proper, is indeed the outcome of many lacunae in indexing technique which need further inquiry. It is, however, necessary at the very beginning of an indexing project to try to offset this risk, by sorting out the mixture of objectives to which the index is directed, to arrange them in a preferred order of importance, and then to proceed to apply the resulting scale of values.
