This article presents Publimath, a bibliographic database that contains the works of IREM (Research Institutes in Mathematical Education) and APMEP (Association of French Professors of Mathematics), as well as numerous other resources in various languages that have been identified by the editorial team as relevant to mathematics instructors. More than 8000 items associated with the history of mathematics, both original historical sources and accounts of classroom experiments, are included in the database.

The first part of this article is an answer to the question: Who manages Publimath?

The second part provides an orientation to the database itself.
