The Gems & Gemology Twenty-Five Year Index, available online now, is a comprehensive guide to the 1981–2005 issues.

Suppose you need to find everything G&G has published on the subject of tanzanite since 1981. Maybe you want to consult an article by a certain author but can’t remember which issue it appeared in. Rather than searching through all 100 issues, more than 7,300 pages in all, simply go online and let the free Gems & Gemology Twenty-Five Year Index (1981–2005) do the work for you.
To use this powerful tool, visit the G&G Indexes page. There you will see links to a Subject Index of articles, Lab Notes, Gem News entries, editorials, and book reviews, as well as a separate Author Index. (Both indexes are PDF files, so to open them you will need Adobe Acrobat Reader installed on your computer; a link to this free software can be found on the G&G Indexes page.) Locating information in either index is simple with Acrobat’s built-in search feature. On the toolbar that pops up with the PDF file, just click on the Search button (represented by a binoculars icon) and type in the word or phrase you want to search for. Every match for your search term will be listed in the order it appears in the index.
The online index is cumulative and will be updated at the end of each volume year. For those who prefer a hard copy, the print version of the Twenty-Five Year Index will be sold later this year.
