Abstract
Hazel Bell, editor of The Indexer from 1978 to 1995, reflects on the content of the journal 40 years ago. In this issue, she travels back to April 1984, a time when, although computers were beginning to be used on indexing projects, index cards, and even index slips, were still very common, as described in several articles in this issue. Reflections on past issues are a regular feature in the journal. You can look further back in time with the ‘ The Indexer forty years ago’ series, which started in the September 2021 issue, or ‘ The Indexer thirty years ago’ series, which was published from 1991 to 2008.
