I can’t find it! All books don't need an index, but if your book is non-fiction (especially how-to, historical, or many other types of reference non-fictions) it really pays to have an index. You can pay a professional indexer to index your book, or you can learn how to use the indexer in Microsoft Word. Either way, if your book does not have an index, it may frustrate readers who are looking for specific information.
