About Francine Cronshaw

In business since 1992, Francine is possibly the most experienced indexer in the Spanish language in the United States.

Projects have included scholarly/academic texts, world language and other college textbooks, criminal justice texts, emergency handbooks for NGOs, and cookbooks and diet books in both Spanish and English.

Francine’s subject and linguistic knowledge plus her meticulous attention to detail have made her the preferred indexer of editors looking for an extra level of quality control. Like catching when a term is not used correctly … and when to use an accent mark.

Canadian edition spellings are also subject to strict quality control.
