Elsevier open access mathematics
From the webpage:
Elsevier has opened up the back archives of their mathematics journals. All articles older than 4 years are available under a license [1] [2]. This license is compatible with non-commercial redistribution, and so we have collected the PDFs and made them available here.
Each of the links below is for a torrent file; opening this in a suitable client (e.g.Transmission) will download that file. Unzipping that file creates a directory with all the PDFs, along with a copy of the relevant license file.
Although Elsevier opens their archives on a rolling basis, the collections below only contain articles up to 2009. We anticipate adding yearly updates.
You can download a zip file containing all of the torrents below, if you’d like the entire collection. You’ll need about 40GB of free space.
Excellent!
Occurs to me this corpus is suitable for testing indexing and navigation of mathematical literature.
Is your favorite mathematics publisher following Elsevier’s lead?
I first saw this in a tweet by Stephen A. Goss.
