Our executive director Peter Berkery responds, "The education of student interns is an additional benefit of university-based publishing initiatives, not a substitute for the essential function that university presses play in the curation and advancement of the scholarly record." bit.ly/47HnLF3

Acquisitions editors might tell you that the most best part of the job is getting a really awesome proposal, but don't believe them for a second. The best part is getting people to agree to serve as peer reviewers. Saints, angels, heroes all.

I’ve been regularly volunteering at a food bank for about a year and please, if you want to help, consider donating cash.

For $3, they can provide 15 meals and what they can do with the money you might spend on a few cans can be converted to vastly more in fresh fruit, vegetables, dairy, or meat.

AI-generated "books" are flooding Amazon and other online retailers.

Here is a regular reminder: Take note of who published the books you read or buy.

Presses are perhaps more important than ever in helping identify trustworthy resources in a failing information ecosystem.

Love this breakdown! Explains so neatly and simply why buying direct (from the press) is the best way to support authors.

Institutions and funders must recognize the contributions of university presses to the humanities infrastructure (opinion) Recognizing the university press community’s essential contributions to that infrastructure will be crucial as institutions and funders plan for the future, write Charles Watkinson and Melissa Pitts.

Worth repeating: "University presses are essential infrastructure for the humanities & should be financially supported in the same way that other higher education inter-institutional infrastructure is." Some powerful examples here:

one thing about Kate's book WRITE THROUGH IT that I thought was really useful framing was the chapter on self-promotion where she talks about what kind of marketing the publisher is good at (trade reviews, bookstores & libraries) vs. what kind the author is good at (readers, your writing community)
