Abstract

To take full advantage of search facilities, online indexes can be designed with a flat structure in which each index entry is clearly worded and makes use of keywords from the subject matter. Indexers can include additional keywords as synonyms that point to the relevant index entries. When indexers take advantage of these concepts and when index users clearly understand what to expect from online indexes, then the indexs become an extremely powerful retrieval medium
