Cambridge Scholars Publishing

Cambridge Scholars Publishing was founded in 2001 by a group of young scholars (PhD students and research fellows) at Cambridge University. The press has grown rapidly since, publishing around 150 academic titles in 2006, with plans for 250 in 2007. The nature of its titles is geared towards an academic library market, and they are therefore highly specialised. Around 90% of its authors are holders of doctorate degrees. Its academic orientation is also visible in some of its more attractive features – such as its policy not to charge for permissions, to accept manuscripts which are not necessarily attractive as 'sellable' books, and to avoid more mainstream books, even where these appear to have a wider market.

Cambridge Scholars Publishing is an academic publisher aiming to promote knowledge and learning through the production and distribution of valuable academic works. They have recently made plans to expand their coverage which will now include all areas of the arts and humanities. They have an interest in publishing proceedings of established or promising new conferences, research monographs, and edited volumes of academic work.

CSP has a policy of actively seeking and commissioning works in areas in which it has a publishing interest but at the same time invites and will consider unsolicited manuscripts in all of the areas in which it publishes.
