Sydney Publishing
Revolutionary textbook saves students thousands

By Alex Christodoulou
The publishing landscape is always changing. If it isn’t the eBook, it’s Amazon and the self-publishing boom. Once upon a time, the introduction of paperbacks made people sit up and take notice by putting books in people’s hands at a fraction of the previous cost.
But when you think of game-changers in the publishing industry, I’ll wager a textbook on Australian politics and policy doesn’t immediately spring to mind.
Happy World Hippo Day!

We're back, and open for business!
The Sydney University Press website is now accepting orders for all our books.
We're now spending a few days on campus each week, as the university prepares for semester 2.
Processing of orders will be done twice a week, so there may be a few days' delay between receiving your order and it going out the door with Australia Post. We appreciate your patience!

From the launch of 'Christina Stead and the Matter of America'
The following is a transcript of a talk given by Brigid Rooney at the launch of Christina Stead and the Matter of America by Fiona Morrison on 6 December 2019.
I’m thrilled to launch Fiona’s wonderful book Christina Stead and the Matter of America, published with Sydney University Press (what an apt occasion to celebrate yet another excellent Sydney Studies in Australian Literature title).
Firing a cannonball in open textbook publishing
By Agata Mrva-Montoya
On Friday 29 November we launched our first open textbook, the result of a pilot project that we started in 2017, when we first became interested in engaging with the educational sphere. We wanted to find out whether there was interest among academics in producing open educational resources, and what resources were required to publish them.
Welcome to our new website and a new blog
We are delighted to launch a new website and a new blog that mark the ‘coming of age’ of Sydney University Press.
