Publish with us

At the University of London Press, our programme of cutting-edge humanities publications is built on a century of publishing experience and a commitment to support humanities research and researchers. We are a non-profit, predominantly open access university press and offer authors a friendly, professional and collaborative publishing experience.

We publish 20—25 books a year across the humanities disciplines, publishing work that highlights the importance of humanities research and opens up debate.

Our new books are published in multiple formats in print and ebook editions and open access titles are published online and free to download in PDF format via our website alongside print editions. Our books have been shortlisted for a number of prestigious prizes and are rigorously peer-reviewed to ensure high quality.  

Most of our books are published as open access editions without author charges, thanks to our support from the School of Advanced Study, and our open access policy has more information on how we can work with you to publish your book open access. 

Alongside the series we publish, we also publish standalone books which focus on the value of the humanities more generally, and projects which offer opportunities to model innovative new ways of publishing humanities research, such as enhanced digital editions. 

We are always interested in discussing new high-quality projects that fit within our publishing programme, so please do get in touch with us if you have a project you think might fit with our list. 

For authors

Our team’s in-depth understanding and experience of academic publishing and research cultures, and care for the publications we produce, mean that you and your book are in good hands throughout the publishing process. If you need any information about publishing with us that isn’t covered in these pages, or you would like to discuss your own book project, please contact the relevant member of the Press team.

Current authors that already have a book under contract with us can download the Author Pack from the Information – For Authors page.
