MPublishing

Comments (0)

Oct 27

The University of Michigan Press blog links today to an extensive outline of their new MPublishing initiative. With a mission of being the primary academic publishing unit of the institution, MPublishing will consist of four segments:

  • the university press,
  • the scholarly publishing office,
  • an institutional repository,
  • and a copyright office.

All of these will be housed (organizationally speaking) under the University of Michigan Libraries.

In terms of disciplinary coverage, the current strength of the university press is in the humanities and social sciences, but the formal statement makes a point of stating that MPublishing expects to publish in the sciences as well, specifically the biomedical and medical areas of scholarly publishing.
