University Press Week Kicks Off!

Yesterday the Association of American University Presses kicked off a week-long celebration of the bounty and the influence of university presses across the country. University Press Week began by highlighting the geographical influence of its member presses. Using Google maps, this Mapping Project highlights exactly where each press sees its reach extending.

A second project called Fine Print is an online showcase of books, journals, digital collections and reference works that exemplify the work of association members.

Watch this space this week for more about University Press Week, and be sure to see our forthcoming November/December issue of Book Business for tips from a selection of university press directors about steering their presses successfully into a digital future.
