Abstract
From the beginning, the first volume of the Formulario was meant only as a first approach to he comprehensive list of formulas that Peano hoped to publish. He knew the value of collaboration and expected that readers of the Formulaire de Mathématiques would send him their corrections and additions. Many of them did, from all over Europe, but mostly the contributors were Italian, especially those who had personal contact with Peano in Turin — not including, however, other members of the university mathematics faculty.
