Indexing and abstracting are the new methods of information organization. They are of high importance considering the growing development of channels of information production and also the necessity of enhancing speed and precision of access to information that has been produced. There are a large number of resources about indexing and abstracting which have been published to clarify the methods. The present paper aims to comprehensively analyze and evaluate Persian works about indexing and abstracting: books, dissertations and articles which have been published in the field of library and information science in Iran. The results show that the first Persian writings in the field of indexing and abstracting were published in the 1970s and the most dominant works of this field were published in the 2000s. Also for this four decade period examining indexing and abstracting in Iran, most of the published works of this field (books and articles) are compilation (not translation) mainly about indexing and its different aspects.
