My splendid colleague Ruth Ellis has put together a storyline for the event. It includes things that happened in the run up and on the day.
The run up to the day started with our sister society in Australia and New Zealand posting some pictures of their members. Catchy tagline – Life is easier with an index.
Whitefox covered the event in their newsletter:

On the actual day, SI President Sam Leith welcomed everyone:

Indexers) - Good indexing practice: training, qualifications, commissioning and index
assessment. Ann Hudson (Training Director, Society of Indexers) - Indexing software: flexible functionality. Ruth Ellis (Social Media Coordinator,Society of Indexers)
- Embedded indexing: a brief what, why and how. Paula Clarke Bain (Marketing

Tea was drunk, questions were asked, and the team stood for a photograph.
I wonder what we’ll do next year?
