I Don't think  it's required; -but indices are very useful in nonfiction books. 
As a sighted reader I  I use them all the time.. However, as a proofer I don't 
proofread them. I'd say to scan them but don't  necessarily proof them before 
submitting them. 
I've considered it as a proofreader, but a "find" will find he desired word in 
the index and the page on which it appears in the book. I don't prroof 
bibliographies carefully, either.

Are Indices required to be scanned? I'm proofing a book in which the scanner 
didn't scan the index.
Thanks,

Melissa
