“The Amer­i­can Math­e­mat­i­cal Soci­ety (AMS) was founded in 1888 in order to fur­ther math­e­mat­i­cal research and schol­ar­ship. Since that time, they have embarked on a num­ber of out­reach pro­grams designed to edu­cate the pub­lic about the impor­tance of var­i­ous math­e­mat­i­cal endeav­ors. In the past sev­eral years, they have been devel­op­ing the AMS Books Online web­site, and it’s quite a resource. The works were all orig­i­nally pub­lished by the AMS, and they can be browsed by author or sub­ject. The sub­ject head­ings include analy­sis, gen­eral inter­est, logic and foun­da­tions, and num­ber the­ory. Users can down­load indi­vid­ual chap­ters from each book, and there are cur­rently over thirty books avail­able on the site. Vis­i­tors should make sure and check back, as there are plans to add books to the site periodically.”
