Happy #TermTuesday! 📖👀 Trade books can be found on many university press's lists, as UPs can publish for trade and academic markets. Many UPs have a regional trade list w/ books specific to their geographic location.

Happy #BannedBooksWeek, everyone! Reading is resistance! Read a book! Check out your local library! Visit an indie bookstore!

It's #TermTuesday and we're back to talk about edited volumes! These books are comprehensive volumes that explore a singular topic from the different perspectives of the volume's contributors.

Happy #TermTuesday! Monographs generally comprise a bulk of many university press's lists as they are books based on extensive research, written for an academic audience, and provide a detailed exploration of a subject. NB: University presses publish a wide array of other books, too!!

Many thanks to all who joined us yesterday for our PAGES Book Club where we discussed WRITE THROUGH IT by @katemckean.bsky.social! And a special thanks to Kate, who joined us in our discussion. We had a blast, and we hope you all did do. Stay tuned for the next PAGES announcement - see you soon!

TOMORROW! Come join us at noon EST! We hope to see you there!😎 You can register at this link: pupress.zoom.us/meeting/regi...

Interested in joining this month's PAGES meeting on September 18? Try listening to the audiobook! Author Kate McKean narrates the audio (so rad!), and you should check it out. Exciting reminder: Kate McKean will also be joining us in our discussion at the upcoming meeting as we discuss her book!

WOW! Happy September! It's #TermTuesday! Exclusive review can give editors a fair opportunity to consider a project, especially in competitive situations. Exclusive review does not mean either party, press or author, is committed to publishing the book.

ICYMI, our next PAGES meeting just dropped! 🥳🥳🥳 We would LOVE to see you there. Thursday, September 18 at noon EST!

Some books might feature a gallery of images rather than having the images spread out through the text. Including a gallery is usually a strategic decision depending on the project, as galleries can affect production costs & affect the reader's navigation of the text. 📖 #TermTuesday 📖

PIPsters! If you have suggestions for terms you'd like to see featured in #TermTuesday, send us a DM!✨

We are back from the weekend with another #TermTuesday! Last week we covered what a book series is, so we're following that up by talking about series editors and what they do.

Happy #TermTuesday, folks! Book series are common among presses and play varying roles in their list of publications (depending on the press & the active series they have). Series are a great way to establish niches, revitalize topics, and make space for underrepresented voices.

See you all at PAGES tomorrow?!?! We can't wait!

Editorial Assistant position with the University of Texas Press (@utexaspress.bsky.social) just dropped! 👀 📖 Supports two editors in the acquisitions department. 📖 Located in Austin, TX 📖 $43,000 salary More details at the link below! ⬇️ utaustin.wd1.myworkdayjobs.com/UTstaff/job/...

Happy #TermTuesday, folks! Extended text is used to describe complex figures in addition to alt-text (when needed).

#TermTuesday repost! We forgot to include alt text in this yesterday and were helpfully reminded by some folks online. Many thanks for your patience and understanding! Guidelines have been established so alt-text is written appropriately. And who writes alt text might vary from press to press.

Folks!! 📖 Just 10 days until our next PAGES meeting where we're testing out the "any book" book club format! 📖 We welcome you all to come talk about what you're currently reading, what you're currently working on, or just to hang out and stay connected. Chill vibes for our summer meeting!😎

Happy #TermTuesday! Today we're tackling accessibility (in the broadest sense). Accessible publishing is a nuanced and *important* aspect of book publishing. The way accessibility standards are implemented will vary from department-to-department and press-to-press.

🚨Job Alert🚨 Great for early career folks who are interested in learning more about the acquisitions process! Check it out! 👀

ICYMI, PAGES is back for the summer but with a twist! We'll be testing out the "any book" book club meeting, giving us an opportunity to just hang out, talk books, and stay connected. We'll be meeting on Thursday, July 24 at noon EST. Register at the link below! pupress.zoom.us/meeting/regi...

Happy #TermTuesday! Today we're talking about page proofs, which is where a book really starts to take shape. For more information on what changes can be made at this stage, check out this article from @aupresses.bsky.social! (ask.up.hcommons.org/changes-made...)

Another Tuesday? Another term! Clearing permissions is a crucial step but can be complex and nuanced due to the nature of copyright law. For a more detailed overview of the permissions process, please review @aupresses Permissions FAQs. #TermTuesday

Entry level marketing position with @princetonupress.bsky.social! 👀👇 📖Hybrid/remote eligible 📖$45,000/year 📖A minimum of 6 months of publishing experience or equivalent experience through an internship or work-study experience required. (A marketing focus is preferred.)

Woohoo! Happy Tuesday, it's #TermTuesday! The structure of a press's Faculty Editorial Board can differ from press to press (especially when it comes to consortium presses). Projects published by a press generally should have Editorial Board approval before moving to launch/transmittal.

Post-long weekend #TermTuesday that feels like a Monday but is actually a Tuesday! 📖 Today we're talking indexes! How indexes are handled varies from press to press and book to book.

thanks to everyone who came to the meeting! a reminder, too, that PAGES members have a standing invitation to review our book selections for #FeedingTheElephant, so if you'd like to review BLACK FEMINIST WRITING, please do get in touch!

We had a fabulous time at our May PAGES meeting yesterday! Thanks all who joined us. We look forward to seeing you again next time, more details to come on our next PAGES meeting. Happy long weekend!
