| Description: |
Started in August 1991, arXiv.org (formerly xxx.lanl.gov) is a highly-automated electronic archive and distribution server for research articles. Covered areas include physics, mathematics, computer science, nonlinear sciences, quantitative biology and statistics. arXiv is maintained and operated by the Cornell University Library with guidance from the arXiv Advisory Board and the help of numerous subject moderators. Users can retrieve papers from arXiv via the web interface. Registered authors may use our web interface to submit their articles to arXiv. Authors can also update their submissions if they choose, though previous versions remain available. Physicist Paul Ginsparg, the creator of the arXiv, joined the Cornell faculty in the fall of 2001. He and the arXiv are credited with starting a revolution in the way physicists, mathematicians, and computer scientists engage in scholarly communication. The arXiv receives approximately two million visits to its Web site per week, and it now contains over 180,000 articles, all of which are immediately accessible online at no submission charge. The benefit to the communities served is immediate awareness of, and equal access to, the newest research results in their areas. CUL staff administer the daily submission process and are rewriting some of the software to streamline these procedures. |
