Abstract
“Al-Afaq Index: 2010” is a bibliographic reference tool prepared to control and facilitate retrieval of materials published in Al-Afaq magazine during 2010. The index consists of three main sections: a title index, arranging entries alphabetically by title; a subject index, grouping materials under relevant topical headings; and an author index, enabling access through the names of authors and contributors. The entries provide concise bibliographic references, including titles, authors, issue or month information, year of publication, and page numbers. This allows readers and researchers to trace articles, studies, and cultural materials published in the magazine. The index functions as a tool for bibliographic control and organization of the magazine’s intellectual output, reflecting the role of library management in supporting search and retrieval services for cultural and professional periodicals.
