The University of Cincinnati has announced today the formation of a new academic press. With a dual publishing focus on social justice and community engagement, the mission of the University of Cincinnati Press is to cultivate and disseminate scholarly works of the highest quality for the enhancement of the global community.
In addition to publishing both print and e-books, the University of Cincinnati Press will be a leader in the exploration of new modes of academic work. These may involve scholarly and creative works in digital media, web based digital scholarship, multi-authored databases, library special collections and archives, as well as future exploration of emerging, new modes of the university's intellectual outcomes.
The first priority in the establishment of the University of Cincinnati Press is the selection of a director. This individual will lead the editorial and administrative functions of the Press, as well as begin to work with and seek authors for publication.
The Press will leverage the strength of the university's faculty by attracting both authors and readers from around the world in the fields where the University of Cincinnati has distinctive expertise.
