      Summary: The most comprehensive subject classification scheme in mathematics is the MSC (Mathematics Subject Classification), based originally on an AMS classification scheme, a standard more than 20 years ago. Zentralblatt MATH and Mathematical Reviews jointly developed the first MSC 1990. The current version is MSC 2010 following another 10-year update. With the trend from printed to digital publications, it turns out that the original structure of the MSC is not capable of expressing what we want to convey in the semantics of electronic publications. SKOS (Simple Knowledge Organization Scheme) is an open standard vocabulary intended for the modelling of thesauri and classification schemes for the web. The SKOS representation of the MSC 2010 will be a start to making it more usable for electronic publishing and integrated into the semantic web. This article outlines why and how this has been done.
