Cross-reference placement in an index


Cross-References in Book Indexing

In an index, cross-references redirect the reader from one heading or subheading to another. Cross-references are important navigational tools, weaving various parts of the index together so that the reader discovers information and relationships within the book, that they might not otherwise have located.

 
  • A See reference indicates that there is no information contained at that entry point.
    It points the reader to the correct location to find information on that topic.

  • A See also reference points readers to related information in addition to what is
    found at that entry.

  • See also cross-references can be located either at the beginning or at the end
    of an entry. Most clients prefer cross-references at the beginning.
