Two
Types of Article Indexes
2. Subject Indexes
- Is your topic
in a particular subject area?
If so, use a
subject index. Subject indexes specialize in a particular subject,
and the articles indexed are generally from scholarly sources. Examples
of subject indexes and the kinds of articles they identify are:
