Netlib is a repository of software for scientific computing maintained by AT&T, Bell Laboratories, the University of Tennessee and Oak Ridge National Laboratory^[1]. Netlib comprises a large number of separate programs and libraries. Most of the code is written in Fortran, with some programs in other languages.

The legal status of the code is not entirely clear. Some programs are clearly in the public domain (for example, SLATEC). However, no license terms or terms of use are stated for many programs.

Netlib is indexed by the Guide to Available Mathematical Software.
