Welcome
PNW/ASI serves Indexers in the states of Alaska, Idaho,
Montana, Oregon and Washington,
as well as in the Canadian provinces of British Columbia and Alberta. We also provide general indexing information to publishing professionals and organizations,
especially in the Pacific Northwest.
We are a regional chapter of the American Society for Indexing (ASI).
