History
University of Alberta Press connects communities of knowledge to inform, inspire, and innovate.
Whether it’s a bold new book, digital project, or open-access resource, we publish peer-reviewed publications to enhance the intellectual and social impact of research and knowledge, fuel solutions to practical problems, and connect ideas with inquisitive audiences, from our region and around the world.
Our passion for excellence drives our scholarly and creative programs. We pursue, produce, enrich, and distribute essential and engaging works for communities of readers. We build trust among scholars, knowledge-holders, and global audiences through our commitment to quality, intellectual freedom, and public access to knowledge.
As a non-profit publisher, we flourish by collaborating with authors, faculty, libraries, museums, students, and partners. Our publications are made using sound, sustainable practices and our work helps make possible the University of Alberta’s mission to educate and inspire the human spirit.
University of Alberta Press is a unit of the University of Alberta’s Library and Museums portfolio. Our Press Committee (editorial board) is composed of U of A faculty members from many departments and disciplines.
