Student Mathematics Library Editorial Committee

(formerly Undergraduate Book Series Editorial Committee)

General Description

Principal Activities

This Editorial Committee is charged with selecting book projects for publication that would be appropriate for honors courses, upper-division mathematics seminars and reading courses. The level and topics should be suitable for those students who are capable of doing graduate work in mathematics.

The Committee is encouraged to look favorably on recommendations from other editorial committees of the Society, but is ultimately responsible for the selection of books in the series.

Miscellaneous Information

The business expenses of this committee, such as postage and telephone charges, may be reimbursed by the Society. Travel reimbursement for this committee has been designated at LEVEL B.

Note to the Chair

Committee chairs should be informed, at the beginning of each fiscal period, of the budget of their committees and cautioned to remain within the budget. Such items as travel reimbursement, accommodations, and meals for guests of any kind fall within these budgets.

For the purpose of archiving the committee activities, the Secretary maintains a central file system for archiving committee records. Committee Chairs are asked to submit committee records on yearly basis. Chairs can submit material at their discretion, and some materials that they may wish to provide are meeting minutes, agenda, and emails. Confidential material should be noted, so that it can be handled in a confidential manner.
