At Indiana University Press, we publish books that make a difference—for readers today and for generations to come. As an academic press, our mandate is to serve the world of scholarship and culture as a professional, not-for-profit publisher. Founded in 1950, we are recognized internationally as a leading academic publisher specializing in the humanities and social sciences. We produce more than 75 new books annually, in addition to 40 journals, and maintain a back list of some 3,500 titles. The Press emphasizes scholarship but also publishes trade and reference titles. Our program is financed primarily by income from sales, supplemented by support from Indiana University and by gifts and grants from outside sources.
