ADVANCE YOUR ACADEMIC CAREER WITH SPANISHBOOKPRESS
More than a publisher, a partner in your Tenure Track.
In today's academic environment, getting published is crucial. SpanishBookPress (SBP) offers a unique path for scholars who need agility without sacrificing rigor. Unlike traditional houses that can take years, or "vanity presses" that lack prestige, we offer a balanced partnership.
WHY SCHOLARS CHOOSE SBP
- Rigorous Peer Review: We adhere to strict academic standards. Your manuscript undergoes a peer-review process (Advisory Board or external reviewers) that validates your work for tenure and promotion committees.
- Not a Vanity Press: We share the financial commitment. While we often require a subsidy (usually covered by University grants), SBP invests heavily in the production, global distribution, and marketing of your work.
- Grant Assistance: Need help securing funding? We actively assist authors with the necessary documentation to apply for publication grants from their departments or universities.
- Editorial Excellence: Our clear Style Manual and editorial team ensure your work is presented professionally. We also offer optional curation services for technical formatting.
- Global Reach: Your book won't just sit in a warehouse. Our printed books are distributed by Ingram, Baker & Taylor, Amazon (Global), Barnes & Noble, and specialized distributors in the UK, Australia, and New Zealand.
