allows you to browse a relatively modern version of the

- what is particularly useful as some parts of the site
have been removed.

Internet Libraries
A grossly underestimated source of mathematical texts. You can find works of Newton, Gauss, Cayley and hundreds of other historical authors - but also newer textbooks and thousands of books you have never heard of before. I have given up sorting these links into the above language categories since many libraries contain works in very different languages - e. g. some French libraries containing German texts.
