• 0000: JOURNAL, BOOKS AND LEARNED SOCIETY ENGAGEMENT: Since 2013 I have managed the Journals and Book Series published by the main UK Learned Society for Mathematics, the London Mathematical Society (LMS). These include
  • Proceedings, Journal, Bulletin and Transactions of the London Mathematical Society
  • The Journal of Topology
  • Compositio Mathematica (published on behalf of the Compositio Foundation)
  • Nonlinearity (published jointly with the Institute of Physics)
  • Mathematika (published on behalf of its owners, UCL)
  • Transactions of the Moscow Mathematical Soceity (English translation, published jointly with the Moscow Mathematical Society and the American Mathematical Society)
  • Izvestiya, Sbornik and Russian Mathematical Surveys (English translation, published jointly with the Russian Academy of Sciences and Turpion)
  • LMS Lecture Notes in Mathematics
  • LMS Student Texts
    

  My work is to lead on setting the publishing strategy, management of the contracts, oversight and appointment of editorial boards, and liaison with the publishing partners, including the commercial partners CUP, Wiley and IOPP with whom the Society contracts production, distribution and marketing.

  The Journals and Book Series operation of the LMS has a turnover of c.£2M per annum and all proceeds go to the charity. Like many UK Learned Societies, the income from these publications is critical to the funding of the Society, and underpins the grants it awards to Mathemticians. Publications funding also contributes to, amongst others, the running of Society meetings, the Popular Lectures, and policy work to engage with Government regarding mathematics education and funding for the mathematics people pipeline, in particular for mathematics research.
