Focus on Independent Publishers - University of Arizona

 



I have featured Seven Stories Press and Restless Books in my series for La Bloga that focuses on small, independent, and university presses. Today's publisher is The University of Arizona Press (UA Press)

Here's what UA Press says about its history, mission, and accomplishments:

The University of Arizona Press is the premier publisher of academic, regional, and literary works in the state of Arizona. We disseminate ideas and knowledge of lasting value that enrich understanding, inspire curiosity, and enlighten readers. We advance the University of Arizona’s mission by connecting scholarship and creative expression to readers worldwide.

Founded in 1959, the Press is a nonprofit publisher of scholarly and regional books. We publish about 55 books annually and have more than 1,600 books in print. These include scholarly titles in anthropology, archaeology, environmental science, history, Indigenous studies, Latinx studies, Latin American studies, and the space sciences; as well as award-winning fiction and poetry series’ Sun Tracks and Camino del Sol.
