Founded in 1995, Mathdoc, the National Documentary Coordination Unit for Mathematics, is a support and research unit (UAR 5638) based in Grenoble, France, with two trusteeships: CNRS Mathematics – Insmi and the Université Grenoble Alpes.
Our services
With its primary mission being to contribute, through IT, to the structuring of documentation and publishing for mathematical research in France, Mathdoc is a unique unit with a national vocation.
Mathdoc provides documentation and publishing services for the mathematical community in its broadest sense: researchers, documentalists, academic publishers, laboratories… such as
- Numdam
- the CFP
- the Portail Math
- the centre Mersenne
Cooperations
To develop Open Science, Mathdoc has established special partnerships with Réseau National des Bibliothèques de Mathématiques, France’s national network of mathematical libraries (RNBM) and the Network of computer scientists in mathematics research laboratories (Mathrice), and also maintains relationships with various partners at national and international level:
Team
The unit is led by mathematicians. The team consists of editors, LaTeX layout designers, IT specialists (development and system administration), documentalists, and an administrative and financial manager. Mathdoc also relies on the expertise of its scientific council members, composed of mathematicians from a wide range of fields, and on a core team dedicated to scientific events.
Publications
Progress of all activities and projects carried out by the UAR can be monitored through publications in scientific or general reviews, presentations held during seminars and conferences, or by the technical reports written by Mathdoc members. The technical reports, produced every four years, account for the activities of the past years and provide details of future projects
