About Us
BIM is proud to have a team of indexers and content taggers with many years of experience, ready to help your organization! Here’s a little information about who we are:
Kevin Broccoli – BIM Co-Owner & Indexer
Kevin has over 28 years of experience indexing books and other media. Along with standard indexes, he creates embedded indexes in Microsoft Word, Adobe FrameMaker, Adobe InDesign, DocBook, HTML, and XML.
He has also created taxonomies and controlled vocabularies for numerous organizations. This has enabled content tagging that allows website users to easily find the information or products they seek.
Kevin has served as Vice President and Program Chair of the New York City Chapter of the American Society of Indexers as well as Chair of the Web Indexing Special Interests Group. During that time he taught a number of hands-on workshops on indexing of websites and intranets.
