- This batch file was updated on May 9, 2016.
- Reading order:
- Volume 1-13
- Volume SS1
- Volume 14-16
- Volume SS2
- Volume 17-22
- New Testament series
- If you are someone who has seen both seasons of the Index anime and are wondering where to pick up the novels, I would urge you start at the very beginning.
- However, if you really don't want to do that, my suggestion would be to read the epilogue of Volume 6, the epilogue of Volume 13, and Chapter 3 of SS1.
- After that, start at Volume 14 and go from there.
- For side stories:
- Volume SP and Kanzaki SS should be read at some point before starting New Testament. I would recommend reading them after either volume 18 or 22.
- The Shoukuhou Misaki Figurine SS contains plot spoilers from NT8.
- The Circumstances Leading to a Certain Magical Heavy Zashiki Warashi’s Simple Killer Queen's Marriage parody story contains plot spoilers from NT10.
- As for the other side stories and parody stories, they have less of a need to be read at a particular time.
- Therefore, I will list what volume the story was on when the side/parody story was released.
- I do not recommend reading these after the listed volumes. It is just there to give you context to when they were released.

- Railgun SS - Last part was released after volume 18.
- Toaru Jihanki no Fanfare - Released after volume 19.
- Love Letter SS - Released after volume 22.
