Suggestion for magazine

Oliver:
Once again thank you for your great publication! Now that you have 15 issues published I have I suggestion that may be helpful to your readers. An index of articles and their associated issue would help significantly when trying to find that article with the information needed but you just can't recall when you saw it. A good example happened to me recently when I was out getting the gardens ready for spring planting and came across a really large earthworm and thought about the article sometime back about disecting an earthworm but couldn't recall which issue to look up the article. I know this is a lot of work and you are already kept busy with putting out the monthly issue so I would be willing to help put this together for you. Maybe a couple of other readers would be willing to help and we could accomplish this fairly easily working together. What are your thoughts about this project?

Hello,

I myself already have problems finding past articles. I was already considering to make an index before, but help of others would really be appreciated. I was considering 3 indexes: one of authors/photographers, one of species names and one of other keywords. I already started to make an author's index (in the December 2011 issue). If there indeed a few readers willing to help, it would save a lot of time. What format would be the most appropriate (page numbers included or only the issue number?) If each person grabs a separate magazine and makes a separate index, then this can easily be combined into an alphabetically sorted list for all issues.

Oliver.
