Mathematical Reviews Database: Derived Products

Mathematical Reviews Database Publication Formats


Since its inception in 1940, the Mathematical Reviews Database of bibliographic listings and reviews of published mathematical research, together with associated data, has grown not only in size but also in complexity. Since 1980, electronic tools for its maintenance have allowed layered information beyond the scope of the paper tools used in the first 40 years. There are many derived products that provide windows into subsets of the root content of the Database and subsets of the linking relationships that exist between entries in the Database. It is expected that new technologies will continue to provide new channels to the content of the Mathematical Reviews Database.

Mathematical Reviews (1940-present)
Since 1940, this print monthly journal has provided reviews of the world's current mathematical literature, classified according to Mathematics Subject Classification. Professional mathematicians assign expert reviewers from around the world to review current published research. Over 55,000 reviews or abstracts are published each year. Subscriptions include annual author and subject indexes.

MathSciNet
MathSciNet is the Web-based version of Mathematical Reviews (MR), containing all the reviews published in MR since its founding in 1940. There are presently nearly 1.85 million reviews. There are many additional features, including a variety of search options and the ability to navigate the literature using an extensive network that contains over 304,000 links to original articles.

MathSci on Dialog©
Dialog© provides retrieval from the full MR Database based on per-hit charges. This product is updated monthly.

MathSci on SilverPlatter, an Ovid® Technologies product
SilverPlatter's interface to the MR Database on CD-ROM and on the Web. Many users are accustomed to SilverPlatter's interface to a wide variety of databases and appreciate the convenience of CD-ROM delivery. This product is updated monthly.

Current Mathematical Publications (1965-present)
This journal, published every three weeks, is a subject index of recent and forthcoming mathematical publications that have been selected and classified by the editors of the Mathematical Reviews (MR) Database. The classification scheme used is the 2000 Mathematics Subject Classification. With 17 issues per year in print, CMP is a subject index of recent and forthcoming mathematical publications. Each issue also contains an author and key index. Author and key indexes covering a half year are included in issue number 9 and in issue number 17. Each issue contains a list of the serials represented in that issue and a separate listing of serial additions and changes, as well as a section containing the tables of contents of certain journals.

e-CMP: Electronic Notification Service for Current Mathematical Publications
This e-mail service is available to members of the American Mathematical Society. Members may receive listings by e-mail of bibliographic information in CMP, roughly every three weeks, in up to three Mathematics Subject Classification areas.

MRef
MRef is a free tool for creating standard references with links to MathSciNet. A reference can be copied and pasted into the MRef window or directly typed in. No special formatting is required, other than placing the author name(s) first. MRef provides unfielded matching across the full MathSciNet Database.

MR Lookup
MR Lookup is a free product for verifying references and adding links to MathSciNet. It provides multi-field searching across the full MR Database.

Featured Review volumes

Featured Reviews were introduced in Mathematical Reviews in 1995 to help users of the MR Database identify the most important new research-level books and papers in mathematics. Items selected for a Featured Review contain interesting ideas or applications, a deep synthesis of existing ideas, or some combination of these. These volumes contain reprints of the Featured Reviews added to the MR Database in a given period; they are grouped in broad subject areas.

Featured Reviews in Mathematical Reviews 1997-1999: With Selected Reviews of Classic Books and Papers from 1940-1969

Featured Reviews in Mathematical Reviews 1995-1996: Reviews of Outstanding Recent Books and Papers
