University Press is a department of the University
of Oxford. It furthers the University's objective
of excellence in research, scholarship, and education
by publishing worldwide.
Oxford University Press (OUP) is
the world's largest university press, publishing over
4,000 new titles a year. It has become familiar to
millions through a diverse publishing programme that
includes scholarly works in all academic disciplines,
bibles, music, school and college textbooks, children's
books, materials for teaching English as a foreign
language, business books, dictionaries and reference
books, and journals.
Most of these publications are produced
by the two major publishing centres, in Oxford and
New York, but there are additional publishing programmes
in many countries around the world, including Australia,
Canada, China, India, Kenya, Malaysia, Pakistan, Singapore,
South Africa, and Spain. Some of the titles published
are targeted directly at local communities, but many
of them, particularly those from Oxford and New York,
are sold around the world.
OUP is governed by the Delegates
of the Press who are appointed from the academic staff
of the University. The Delegates are responsible for
determining policy, meeting fortnightly during term-time
under the chairmanship of the Vice-Chancellor. They
are actively involved in the publishing programme:
all books are referred to them for approval and individual
Delegates maintain a dialogue with editors in their
specialist subject areas.
Key to OUP's continuing development
are the talent and dedication of staff worldwide.
OUP boasts a highly skilled and motivated workforce
in all areas of activity. Loyalty to OUP and its ideals
of scholarship and education is very strong and many
staff remain with the organization for their entire
careers. Through developing the potential of its staff,
OUP is best placed to develop the potential of the
business as a whole.
In fulfilling its objective of the
furtherance of learning and culture, OUP is committed
to continuous development of its scholarly and educational
publishing, responding to the growing need for school,
college, and academic books and information via diverse
media, and extending and strengthening its international
activities. |
