Brandeis University Press Expands with UPNE Backlist By Alex Green | Apr 20, 2021
When the University Press of New England shuttered at the end of 2018, the region lost a unique publishing consortium with a diverse backlist that drew its collective strength from the specialization of its member presses. But UPNE’s backlist is not gone. Instead, it has been acquired by Brandeis University Press, which plans to use the titles to support its own expansion into some genres that have been underserved since UPNE’s closure.
The acquisition was finalized earlier this year, and includes sole ownership of UPNE’s titles and copyrights, which more than doubles BUP’s list to 700 books in-print. Dartmouth College, where UPNE was located, had co-managed the list with BUP for the previous two years and will retain sole ownership of UPNE titles published under the Dartmouth College Press.
In fact, the press would still be interested in working with Professor Dollinger to republish the book with a new preface through BUP and we continue to promote his book.
Beyond this, we are happy to report that for the first time in its history BUP as an independent university press has a new academic editorial board, which had its inaugural meeting just two weeks ago. The board has now convened to review the present situation and BUP’s procedures more generally. We will be looking closely at the role of series editors, the peer review process, and the author-editor revision process.
