The Aim of the Math-Net Page

Typically, a Web site of a department contains address information, an overview about the institution, preprints, teaching material, library information, and so on. 

The Math-Net Page as a secondary homepage aims to be a standardized portal for the core information offered by the department. Beyond this, it provides access to the "global" Math-Net Services explained below. For all participating mathematical departments, the Math-Net Page is supposed to have a (nearly) uniform structure, notation, and design. The intention is to give all these secondary homepages a standardized look-and-feel so that visitors are familiar with the structure of the page whereever they access such a homepage. Two examples, the Math-Net Pages of the Departments of Mathematics of the University of Cologne and of Duke University, are shown below. 

The Math-Net Page is not a substitute for the primary homepage of the department. As a matter of standardization it should have a prominent link to this departmental homepage. 

The main aims of the Math-Net Page are to provide 

  • a friendly entry point to the local information for the human user
  • a standardized entry point supporting in particular special Math-Net search engines that collect information offered by the mathematical institutions. This enables comprehensive high quality information services for the global mathematical community.
