Quote It! On Amateur Indexing
"Incidentally, I have seen some of the indexing done by amateurs, and I can assure you they are more misleading than helpful. I am reminded in this context of a book whose index referred to the "great mind of Mr. Justice Jones." On turning to page 19, the text read "Mr. Justice Jones had a great mind to hold the defendant in contempt of court." -- Julius J. Marke, The Law Librarian and You - Are You Missing the Boat?, 40 N.Y.St.B.J. 347 (1968).
