2415 - The Association of University Presses (AUPresses) Workshop on How to Publish with a University Press

Session Submission Type: Workshop

Description

Learn more about the value of university press publishing, and find which university press is the best fit for you. Learn the basics of book publishing: writing a proposal; finding a press; peer review; the publication process; and successful publication. AUPresses represents 151 distinguished scholarly presses. At a time of global mergers and consolidation in the media industry, university presses are committed to the furtherance of scholarly excellence and are dedicated to the promotion of rigorous research and emerging areas of scholarship. Learn from seasoned press editors about how their scholarly presses operate. In particular, the Rose Series, published by the Russell Sage Foundation, is the flagship book series of the ASA, and is one example of the commitment of scholarly presses to furthering excellence in scholarship. Attendees are invited to ask questions; a Q & A will follow the presentation.
