Abstract(s)

Since long ago, the professional activity of mathematicians depends on the bibliographic searches and queries. For nearly 2500 years, the essential publications on mathematics have been passed from generation to generation. With the new electronic tools we are used to have materials, information and data on our desk almost instantaneously. Yet the resources available in digital form are only a small part of the enormous cultural and scientific heritage of Mathematics. With the beginning of the twenty-first century, an ambitious idea has been taking shape: digitize all the mathematical literature of all time, to create a giant international mathematical community. A huge cooperation project worldwide, with an estimated duration of 10 to 15 years and a cost of more than 100 million euros, to convert 50 million pages into electronic format, accessible from anywhere in the world. In this article, which is a summary of various documents that the RSME (Royal Spanish Society of Mathematics, http://www.rsme.es), we inform about the benefits and drawbacks of the DML (Digital Mathematical Library) project, the steps that have been taken, and the participation of the RSME in the European team which is preparing it.

Desde hace mucho tiempo, la actividad profesional de los matemáticos depende de las búsquedas y consultas bibliográficas. Durante casi 2500 años, las publicaciones matemáticas esenciales han ido pasando de generación en generación. Con las nuevas herramientas electrónicas nos hemos habituado a disponer, de manera casi instantánea, de material, información y datos sobre nuestra mesa de trabajo. Y sin embargo, los fondos disponibles en formato digital son sólo una pequeña parte del enorme patrimonio cultural y científico de las Matemáticas. Con el inicio del siglo XXI una ambiciosa idea ha ido tomando cuerpo: digitalizar toda la literatura matemática de todos los tiempos, para crear una gigantesca comunidad matemática internacional. Un enorme proyecto de cooperación a escala planetaria, con una duración estimada de 10 a 15 años, y un coste de más de 100 millones de euros, para convertir 50 millones de páginas a formato electrónico, accesibles desde cualquier lugar del mundo. En este artículo, que es un resumen de distintos documentos que la RSME (Real Sociedad Española de Matemáticas, http://www.rsme.es) quiere dar a conocer a la comunidad matemática española, contamos las ventajas y dicultades del proyecto DML (Digital Mathematical Library, Biblioteca Digital de Matemáticas), los pasos que se han dado, y la participacion de la RSME en el equipo europeo que lo está preparando.
