A review is given of surface magnetism. In particular the interplay of magnetization and anisotropy at a surface is discussed, after a survey of experimental and theoretical results for magnetic moment and anisotropy at surfaces or interfaces of semi-infinite magnets and thin films. Finally, the importance for surface (or interface) analysis of the random single-ion anisotropy model is stressed.
