Thanks Mr. Eldho Joy for the positive remarks. You are correct in saying "the relevance of indexing is going up these days especially due to the information overload related problems." Many of the developments in indexing techniques are incorporated in the technology of search engines like Google. More information on related topics will appear in the Librarianship Studies https://librarianshipstudies.blogspot.com in coming days. Regards Salman On Fri, Mar 17, 2017 at 9:47 AM, Eldho Joy wrote:
