V10 2007 INDEX
E-SYLUM ARCHIVE
The E-Sylum: Volume 10, Number 40, October 7, 2007, Article 13 TAMS JOURNAL INDEX UPDATE I asked Katie Jaeger for more information on her effort to update the index of the journal of the Token and Medal Society. She writes: "It has bugged me endlessly, during research, that I can't search the TAMS index with a computer. Realizing no one else was likely to create a searchable text, I volunteered. I've scanned and proofread Edgar Heyl's 20-year index covering 1 960-1980, and I'm now in the process of pasting in entries from the remaining 25 annual indices. "When I'm done, the current editor can easily add the previous year's index to the master in an hour or two, to keep it current. This is time consuming and tedious, but I'm getting a lot out of it as I go along - learning more about the vast scope of exonumia, and the changing interests of collectors over the years, just from the titles." [Many thanks to Katie for taking on this important and thankless chore. Periodical sets are nearly useless to researchers without a good, updated index. -Editor] Wayne Homren, Editor The Numismatic Bibliomania Society is a non-profit organization promoting numismatic literature.
