During June-October, 2012, the arXiv Bylaws below were developed and reviewed with the guidance of the Interim Member Advisory Board (MAB). The guidelines specify MAB’s operations, including its composition, member appointment methods, and term of office. Within the confinement of arXiv principles, these Bylaws may be amended, or new articles adopted, by the consensual agreement of the Board members.

Please send your questions or comments about the Bylaws to rieger@cornell.edu.
