@RColesworthy@mastodon. Love this article & happy to see it a gazillion times. Also appreciate your point out that UPs are not ALL subsidized or endowed at similar levels.

University presses each have a distinct funding model and our finances play a big part in the types of risks we can take/the opportunities we can seize/how we weather storms.

And yet we still publish work that changes the world.

All to say support your #UniversityPress #BuyABook #SubscribeToAJournal #UPWeek @bookstodon@a.gup.pe
