Is it in textbooks? Journal archives? Some great mathematical library in the sky?
Just who exactly *has* all the information about modern mathematics? Is there some ubiquitous treasury of mathematics where all the current knowledge is kept, written down in Latin or some shit?
Who exactly dictates/knows what mathematical fields exist, and who updates all the college professors with material? Do they just do the research themselves?
