The back-of-book index is one of the oldest devices used for Organizing and Retrieving Information, and its significance relies on the fact of its being one of the main access point to the content of the book, helping the reader to comprehend the relevant concepts contained in the manuscripts. However, the process of elaboration of back-of-book in Brazil happens, often, in a manual way, what demands time and financial costs, what justifies the low number of publications and contain the index. Thus, this article aims at presenting studies que discuss about the use of technology for the elaboration of the index, from 16 publications selected by means of literature review. The results have shown that the publication of the first years presented in an incipient way the technological insertion, and over the years, there were reports of indexes produced by means of automatic indexing. It is evinced that are necessary studies about the use of semiautomatic indexing to help in the elaboration of the index, considering that the indexer’s intervention, even with the help of technology, is still necessary for explicating the semantics and the context in the elaboration of indexes, as well as the use of technology if needed for expedite the finalization of the index.
