UTP Publishing
UTP Publishing, a leading North American scholarly publisher, consists of two publishing divisions: Higher Education, publishing course books for the post-secondary market, and Scholarly Publishing, publishing books for academics, students, and the informed reader.
Higher Education
About Us
In early 2008 University of Toronto Press acquired the Broadview Press publishing lists in anthropology, history, politics, and sociology, as well as the Garamond imprint. Broadview’s editors in these areas, as well as a significant portion of Broadview’s sales and marketing, production, and management teams, formed a dynamic new division known as UTP Higher Education, which complements the Scholarly Publishing division.
Our Mandate
The aim at UTP Higher Education is to publish materials for course use that are pedagogically valuable and that also contribute to ongoing scholarship. Working as a new division within UTP offers exciting opportunities to pursue this goal and to meet the changing needs of teaching and scholarship in North America.
We strive to be recognized as a first alternative to larger textbook publishers, both for instructors looking for a refreshing change from the standard course book offerings and for potential authors who value creative and editorial licence as well as the personal attention provided by our editors.
The possibilities for rethinking how texts can be used in the classroom, along with new formats for their delivery, are endless, and UTP Higher Education looks forward to partnering with instructors and scholars in this innovative endeavour.
