University Press
Established in 1981, Áù¾ÅÉ«Ìà Press (UC Press) is a non-profit, scholarly publisher committed to producing high-calibre academic and trade books and journals on a wide range of subjects.
It seeks to:
- publish works that give voice to the heartland of the continent;
- publish works that are innovative, experimental, and offer alternative perspectives;
- publish works that offer diverse views on international themes;
- help new writers break into academic and trade markets and nurture their careers; and
- link the creation and dissemination of new knowledge.
University of Calgary Press is particularly proud of its role as a regional publisher for Alberta and the West. As one of only a handful of western Canadian university presses, UC Press fills an important role in publishing titles that focus on the history, politics, economy, and culture of the prairies, mountains, and northern regions. Aboriginal topics are a related and inextricable piece of this component of our mandate. UC Press also publishes in such subject areas as: media and cultural studies, political studies and economics, environmental studies, philosophy, women's studies, Latin American studies, and African studies.
UC Press offices are located in the basement of the MacKimmie Library Block. Usual business hours are 8:30 am to noon and 1:00 to 4:30 pm Monday to Friday.
