One of my major focuses for the math department over the next few weeks will be working on identifying collected works to add to the library collection. I owe a thanks to Dr. Hassett for reminding me how important collected works are, and to the work of Steven Rockey at Cornell for making the process easier. I will be working from his list at http://astech.library.cornell.edu/ast/math/find/Collected-Works-of-Mathematicians.cfm which he started in the 1970′s and from The History of Mathematics from Antiquity to the
Present: A Selective Annotated Bibliography, edited by Joseph W.
Dauben: Revised Edition on CD-ROM edited by Albert C. Lewis, in
cooperation with the International Commission on the
History of Mathematics.

Investigating archiving datasets
Posted by effervescentlibrarian on October 15, 2007
Great article is in this month’s D-Lib magazine. http://www.dlib.org/dlib/september07/gold/09gold-pt1.html
A group of us hope to get Anna Gold to come and work with us at Rice and HAM-TMC.
