Recession Hits British University Presses Hard

As academic presses in Britain struggle because of the recession, Middlesex University plans to close its press, The Bookseller reported today. The news is not all gloomy, though. Kingston University plans to open a press on December 1, and plans are on track to create a pan-European association of university presses, including 12 in Britain.

I don't know what the status of University of Manchester's press is, but the article from the Bookseller is about Middlesex University Press.

Thanks for catching that error. I've updated the item.
