Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 59th year, we have over 358,000 sequences, and we’ve crossed 10,300 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”). | Other ways to Give |
The OEIS Community
THIS PAGE IS EIGHT YEARS OLD AND WIL SOON BE REWRITTEN
During these years, probably ten thousand people have contributed in one way or another to the database. Although it is impossible to thank them individually, this page serves to list a selection of names, especially people who are active in the OEIS community today. The People Who Keep the OEIS Web Site Running
David Applegate, the webmaster in charge of day-to-day operations.
who helped NJAS set up the initial version of the On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences in 1996.

The Principal Editorsdedicated and unpaid Editors-in-Chief and Associate Editors. This is very hard and time-consuming work (as NJAS knows only too well, having handled the first 180000 sequences himself) but the reward comes from seeing the creation of a beautiful new entry. And, often enough, from discovering a new sequence that one spends a day or six months thinking about (that is the real reward!).
