Community Curation and Management of Mathematical Literature

Burns, John, Kerr, Nigel

Similarity:

JSTOR is one of the primary providers of scholarly mathematics texts, providing access to journals in mathematics and the sciences dating back to the mid 1600’s. There is now a critical mass of literature online and the task going forward is as much to provide tools to make it more accurate, more discoverable and more usable as it is to add more material. Often the tool building can be done by collaboration between information retrieval experts and practitioners in the field, irrespective...

Small Scale Retrodigitization

Doob, Michael

Similarity:

The digitization of papers born in the print-only era is vital for the health of the mathematical record. Many large scale retrodigitization projects are underway and, at this point, probably more that half of the mathematical history has been finished. Many smaller journals and books remain to be done. This paper gives a framework within which these may also be completed. It uses the digitization of the Canadian Journal of Mathematics (53,000 pages), completed as a one-man project over...
