General Experience

I have been a qualified indexer for 21 years. I have a chemistry degree and have worked in libraries in the pharmaceutical and higher education sectors. I subsequently worked as an information consultant for 15 years. I index science, technology and medical texts, and specialise in the chemical, biological and medical fields. I index specialist academic texts, school textbooks  and books aimed at the general interest level. I’m available all year and can consider rush jobs.
