Press provides publication of research fuse <? «g a classifieds \
'TUeA*. 14, flt&A, Ifou,
By CONNIE CAMP
The University Press is a
, way to fill the gap left by trade
publishers and is not in compe
tition with them, according to
its director.
< Ralph H, Stephens, who has
been with the Press since 1940
and has been director since
1950, cites financing the pub-
< lishing of highly scholastic,
research aimed at specialized
audiences as his biggest pro
blem.
“Most of the books are
concerned with research be
cause it is extremely difficult
to get such work published in
light of the limited field of
interest and the value placed
on publication by universities,”
said Stephens.
According to Stephens, the
Press is an extension of the
University's general aim of
disseminating knowledge and
culture to the region "We
publish the more educational
books," he said.
The Press, which is partially
funded by the University, re
ceives outside grants from
other colleges and Founda
tions, according to Stephens
Twelve full-time workers and
three part-time workers are
employed by the Press which
is divided into five sections
These sections are concerned
with editing, production, pro
motion publicity, distribution,
and business. •'
The Press, organized in 1959
for the sole purpose of publish
ing scholarly works, averages
from 20 to 25 books per year
out of an estimated 400 manu
scripts, queries, and outlines,
according to Stephens.
No actual printing is done by
the Press. “The books it pub
lishes are contracted out to
printers by bids," he said.
When a manuscript Is recei
ved. it is originally screened
here, Stephens continued. If
the manuscript appears to
have “possibilities." according
to Stephens, it is sent to a
specialist of the same field
"This specialist evaluates the
manuscript for good and bad
points, and makes suggestions
on how the manuscript might
be improved," he explained.
If the report of the first
specialist is favorable, the
manuscript is sent to a second
specialist who follows the same
proeeedure and makes recom
mendations concerning publish
ing.
The readers of manuscripts
are always chosen from differ
ent campuses than the author,
according to Stephens. This is
intended to prevent any undue
pressure on the evaluator.
After the two preliminary
screenings, manuscripts which
have received favorable re
ports are forwarded to the
twelve member faculty editori
al board.
This board makes the final
decision and suggests any need
ed changes in the manuscript.
"The board members are
appointed by the Provost with
the approval of the president of
the University, and are from
different fields within the Uni
versity," Stephens said
The Press is one of approxi
mately seventy-five members
of the Association of American
University Presses
Authors receive royalties on
the books only after 500 copies
of the book have been sold,
according to Stephens, who
saidthat this is to try to recover
the cost of publishing the work
Some of the more notable
authors published by the Press,
according to Stephens, are Dr.
T. Harry Williams of LSU,
Lewis Kueban of UNO, and
Donald Davidson of Vanderbilt.
