Literature	Index (The). The "Roman Index" contains both the Index Librorum Prohibitorum and the Index Expurgatorius. The former contains a list of such books as are absolutely forbidden to be read by faithful Catholics. The latter contains such books as are forbidden till certain parts are omitted or amended. The lists are made out by a board of cardinals called the "Congregation of the Index." Of course, it is wholly impossible to keep pace with the present issue of books; but, besides the Protestant Bibles, and the works of such heretics as Arius and Calvin, we find in the lists the following well-known names: - Of English authors: Addison, Bacon, Gibbon, Goldsmith, Hallam, Locke, J. S. Mill, Milton, Robertson, Archbishop Whately, etc., and even some children's tales. Of French authors: Arnauld, Calvin, Descartes, Fénelon, l'Abbé Fleury, Malebranche, Voltaire, etc. Of Italian authors: Dante, Guicciardini, Sismondi, etc. Of German authors: Kant, Luther, etc. "Under the auspices of Cardinal Caraffa (part iv.). the Inquisition was introduced into Italy (1542), and exerted the utmost vigilance and severity in crushing out the new faith, and the index of prohibited books was established." - Fisher: Universal History, part iii. period ii. chap. iv. p. 414.

An index (plural. indices) is a pointer that takes you to information. Traditionally indexes (also pluralised particularly in Europe as indices) are found at the back of books. They complement the contents page because they give access to information by its specific name; contents pages, on the other hand, give access through broad categories. Indexes are usually organised alphabetically; contents pages are organised according to the order of pages in the book.

Indexing skills have also been applied to periodicals and databases, and web indexing is now becoming important.

In mathematics, an index (plural indices) is a superscript or subscript to a symbol. Superscript indices are often, but not always, used to indicate powers. Subscript indices are usually used to label a set or sequence of variables.

The index of a subgroup is the number of its left cosets (which is equal to the number of its right cosets).

The index of a Fredholm operator is the dimension of its kernel minus the dimension of its cokernel.

In computer science, an index is usually used for expressing an nth element. Indices are usually expressed as integers.
