Introduction

This research guide is a starting point for finding and accessing information resources in mathematics and statistics. It contains the key resources related to pure and applied mathematics. It is not meant to be exhaustive.

Please contact me, your librarian, if you:

Want to discuss strategies for conducting literature searches
Need other resources not included in this guide
Want to recommend a new resource
Have questions about open access publishing or data management
Have problems accessing resources

If you're a faculty member or instructor at Queen's, you may be looking for more advanced support. Please see the Faculty and Staff User Guide for detailed information.

Key Resources

arXiv
arXiv contains e-prints (draft manuscripts) in the fields of astronomy, astrophysics, physics, mathematics, non-linear science, computer science, and quantitative biology.
MathSciNet
MSN covers the mathematical sciences literature, including computational chemistry and mathematical physics. It contains more than 3 million references dating back to the early 1800s. It is produced by the American Mathematical Society (AMS).
zbMATH Open
zbMATH Open (formerly known as Zentralblatt MATH) is the world's most comprehensive database of pure and applied mathematics literature. It contains more than 4.4 million records with reviews or abstracts sourced from more than 3,000 journals and book series, and some 190,000 books dating back to the 18th century. All entries are classified according to the Mathematics Subject Classification Scheme.
Wolfram MathWorld
Established in 1995, MathWorld is the world's most extensive open access resource for mathematical information.
