The Busy Man’S Arxiv, Henrik Spoon

Upstate New York Science Librarians Conference

The presentation concerns arXiv.org, a repository of electronic preprints, including the need to filter the huge volume of discipline specific materials being added. Description of history of arXiv.org, submitting items, research disciplines included, usage statistics, download rates, and how to stay on top of publications in the field of interest. BMarXiv is suggested as a possible solution to the large volume of information.
