An Introduction to MathSciNet

Rob Hladky, PhD

MathSciNet is an online, searchable database of the published mathematical material, curated by mathematicians for mathematicians. In addition to indexing the literature, we also solicit reviews of many papers from active research mathematicians. We’ll discuss what MathSciNet is, how it differs from other resources, and how to access and use the database. Along the way, we’ll learn about many of the useful tools that MathSciNet provides. Particular emphasis will be placed on features helpful to students at the beginning of their mathematical career.
