2. The European Mathematical Society European Mathematical Information Service Electronic Publications HBundles of e-journals provided by commercial publishers HSociety and Library supported publications: PJournals from AMS, SIAM, LMS, CAS etc. PProject Euclid - low-budget offer from Cornell University PFrench electronic journals via SMAI HCoalitions: ELibM in EMIS, Sparc-initiative HPre-print servers (not refereed)

3. The European Mathematical Society European Mathematical Information Service Electronic publishing in mathematics - general aspects HAbout 300 journals in the web Pat most 10% electronic only HAdvantages: PQuicker publication, desktop access, enhanced facilities like links, animations, searching facilities etc. Honline first, but print version has its own value HSubmission requirements Pfiles, standardisation, reference links HReduced costs under dispute

10. The European Mathematical Society European Mathematical Information Service Current Actions HEach journal has to agree to be archived, though they have been informed about this facility before HTEX-files have to be secured HFirst installations have to be upgraded HProduction lines have to be adjusted to archiving purposes HMeta-data production has to be standardized

11. The European Mathematical Society European Mathematical Information Service Upgrading the offer HJournal-volume-issue-article based navigation structure at present HComplete, standardised metadata for more direct access in preparation HImprovement of linking facilities from and to the text, from the references to electronic offers HPromoting “online first” for dual journals - modest charging as a consequence
