The Irish Mathematical Society ({{langx|ga|Cumann Matamaitice na hÉireann}}) or IMS is the main professional organisation for mathematicians in Ireland. The society aims to further mathematics and mathematical research in Ireland. Its membership is international, but it mainly represents mathematicians in universities and other third level institutes in Ireland. It publishes a bulletin, The Bulletin of the Irish Mathematical Society,[http://www.irishmathsoc.org/bulletin/ Web page for Bulletin of the Irish Mathematical Society] twice per year and runs an annual conference in September.[https://www.maths.tcd.ie/pub/ims/meetings/ Irish Mathematical Society Meetings]
The society was founded on 14 April 1976 at a meeting in Trinity College, Dublin when a constitution drafted by D McQuillan, John T. Lewis and Trevor West was accepted.[http://www-history.mcs.st-and.ac.uk/Societies/Irish.html The Irish Mathematical Society page on The MacTutor History of Mathematics archive][http://www.maths.tcd.ie/pub/ims/bull51/M5103.pdf {{Cite journal | last1 = West | first1 = T. T. | title = The Origins of the Irish Mathematical Society | journal = Bulletin of the Irish Mathematical Society | volume = 51 | pages = 73–75 | publisher = Irish Mathematical Society | year = 2003 }}] It is a member organization in the European Mathematical Society. Since 2020, it has been the adhering organization for Ireland's membership of the International Mathematical Union.{{cite web |url=https://www.mathunion.org/imu-members/ireland |title=Ireland |website=www.mathunion.org |publisher=International Mathematical Union |access-date=11 August 2021}} The logo was designed by Irish mathematician Desmond MacHale.[http://www.irishmathsoc.org/news05/M0501.pdf Mathematical Society News] Logo design by Des MacHale
Bulletin of the Irish Mathematical Society
The Bulletin of the Irish Mathematical Society is a journal that has been published since 1986, and was preceded by the Newsletter of the Irish Mathematical Society.[https://www.irishmathsoc.org/bulletin/index.php?file=byvol Bulletin of the Irish Mathematical Society Online] It accepts articles that are of interest to both Society members and the wider mathematical community.[https://www.irishmathsoc.org/bulletin/ Bulletin of the Irish Mathematical Society] Articles include original research articles, expository survey articles, biographical and historical articles, classroom notes and book reviews. It also includes a problem page. Articles are available online.
