You may be getting tripped up by the fact that they have "closed" all of their investor class index funds to merge them with Admiral class. This is a good thing as the expense ratios are lower. As far as I know, no index funds are closed.
The only closed Vanguard funds that I am aware of are Capital Opportunity, Morgan Growth, Primecap, Primecap Core, and Dividend Growth. Now, these are some of their best actively managed funds so that is unfortunate, but good for existing investors so they don't get flooded and become index-like. [Full disclosure - I own Primecap and Dividend Growth]. Anyway, that is 5 funds out of 130 that Vanguard offers - not a high percentage.
