The Digital Library of Mathematical Functions (DLMF) is an online project at the
National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to develop a database of mathematical reference data for
special functions and their applications. It is intended as an update of ''
Abramowitz's and Stegun's Handbook of Mathematical Functions'' (A&S).
It was published online
on 7 May 2010, though some chapters appeared earlier. In the same year it appeared at
Cambridge University Press under the title ''NIST Handbook of Mathematical Functions''.
In contrast to A&S, whose initial print run was done by the
U.S. Government Printing Office and was in the
public domain, NIST asserts that it holds copyright to the DLMF under
Title 17 USC 105 of the U.S. Code.
