If all info from member indexed books is going to be made available for viewing by all EYB members then I believe member indexing should be held to the standards and level of excellence that EYB upholds. I look forward to hearing what you think. Of course the same is true if a book isn't indexed at all, but at least at the moment you know what is and isn't indexed on your Bookshelf. Many books would remain only partly indexed which doesn't allow members to find many recipes. I feel this takes away from the principle of adding a book to your Bookshelf and being able to search through all recipes at once.

That we get members just to index individual recipes rather than entire books.

And the paid indexer will need the book to complete the categories (recipe name is not always enough to identify ethnicity, recipe type, course, season, etc). Secondly, it will be hard to track down many of the books that members chose to index. I don't like this idea for a couple of reasons - firstly, it takes paid indexers away from "popular" books, to re-index books that could be owned by just a few members.

That we ask member indexers to only enter the recipe name and ingredients, leaving all categories (which seem to be most problematic for new indexers) to be done by a paid indexer.

I don't think that would be in the interest of all members. I feel this would create a 2-tier data structure, where member indexed books had more mistakes.

That we hold members to a lower standard, not expecting them to apply the same rules as paid indexers.

This can be offputting to a volunteer.Ī few suggestions have been made so I would welcome members views:

In order for the data to be consistent with all the books and magazines we have indexed with our professional indexers, there are a lot of guidelines and rules to follow.

As our trial indexers have found, it isn't just a question of opening up a cookbook and starting typing. We do have a few trial members indexing now but given how much help and support is needed, especially at the start, we feel we cannot open up member indexing to all members until we take on another staff member to handle it.

Thanks for your enthusiasm loroloff - I have asked our data manager, Deborah to contact you.
