Here's a news flash for all who are interested in indexing, especially the
indexing of technical and software documents. (This message is posted by
the officers of the Twin Cities Chapter of the American Society of
Indexers.)
The Society for Technical Communication in the Twin Cities (MN) area will
devote its April meeting to the topic _Alternatives in Technical Writing_.
The areas being discussed are ISO 9000 writing, online documentation,
electronic documentation, and indexing. This is a good chance to see how
indexing fits into the process of technical writing.
The meeting is on Tuesday, April 9,(soon!) at the Embassy Suites Hotel on 34th
Avenue in Bloomington. Dinner is at 6:00 p.m. with program afterward.
The cost of the program alone is $5.00; of the dinner and program, $18.00
(both prices for non-members of STC). To make reservations to attend,
call the STC voicemail at (612) 942-1600.
ASI members in the Twin Cities area are especially encouraged to attend.
