Its intended audience is teachers of collegiate mathematics, especially at the junior/senior level, and their students. It is explicitly a journal of pedagogy rather than research. Rather than articles in the terse "theorem-proof" style of [[research]] journals, it seeks articles which provide a context for the mathematics they deliver, with examples, applications, illustrations, and historical background. {{cite web |date=June 2, 2008 |title=Mathematics Magazine: Instructions for Authors |url=https://www.tandfonline.com/action/authorSubmission?show=instructions&journalCode=umma20 |access-date=December 17, 2025 |website=Mathematics Magazine |publisher=Taylor & Francis Online}} Paid circulation in 2008 was 9,500 and total circulation was 10,000. {{cite journal |date=October 2008 |title=Statement of Ownership, Management, and Circulation |journal=Mathematics Magazine |volume=81 |issue=4 |pages=316 |issn=0025-570X }} ''Mathematics Magazine'' is a continuation of ''Mathematics News Letter'' (1926–1934) and ''National Mathematics Magazine'' (1934–1945).[http://www.maa.org/press/periodicals/mathematics-magazine/history-of-mathematics-magazine ''History of Mathematics Magazine''] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220320102703/http://www.maa.org/press/periodicals/mathematics-magazine/history-of-mathematics-magazine |date=2022-03-20 }}, MAA.
