Conferences



The ACMS sponsors a biennial conference, held in odd-numbered years, generally in late May.  A gathering at the annual Joint Mathematics Meetings in January is also sponsored; that gathering has normally consisted of a dinner and a lecture.

Conference Proceedings - Those interested in obtaining a print copy of any volume of the conference proceedings for their library or personal collection should contact the ACMS Executive Secretary for availability and price information.

The complete listing of Conference Proceedings table of contents is also provided in a single document in order to simplify searches for a particular author or topic if you do not know the year of a given article.

If ACMS members wish to host the ACMS biennial conference at their institution, please complete and forward to the president or the executive secretary the attached Conference Site Survey.
